UNIQ

THE DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS FOR THE UNIQ PROGRAMME IS FAST-APPROACHING!

 

We just wanted to remind you that applications are open for the University of Oxford’s free widening access programme, UNIQ. This year, alongside the summer school, we have an expanded programme which includes a Spring Conference and a digital learning portal enabling up to 2000 students to take part.

 

Each element of the programme is academically intensive and challenging but also a lot of fun. Importantly, every programme run by UNIQ is completely free of charge; the University covers all accommodation, food and travel expenses and any associated academic or social activity costs. A great many of our previous participants have gone on to make successful applications to Oxford, Cambridge and other Russell Group universities.

 

UNIQ is open to applications from UK state school and college students in their first year of further education. Detailed eligibility and selection criteria can be found on our website. We particularly welcome applications from students who:

 

·         Have the potential to perform well academically and attained good GCSE grades

·         Live in areas where young people are less likely to progress to higher education and where there is a greater degree of low socio-economic status households

 

By taking part, UNIQ participants:

 

·         Receive current advice on all aspects of Oxford admissions

·         Gain confidence in their own abilities

·         Are better equipped to submit strong applications to competitive universities

 

For more information about UNIQ, an electronic copy of our brochure is available online here.

 

APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN NOW AND CLOSE AT 11PM ON WEDNESDAY 31 JANUARY.

Yours faithfully,

The UNIQ Team
