The UNIQ Programme offers free residentials in July and August for Year 12 students studying at UK state schools. There are tailored programmes for students interested in each of the undergraduate programmes offered by MPLS departments. Preference is given to applicants who come from schools and areas with little or no history of successful application to Oxford.
The Oxford Pathways programme gives academically able year 10 students from non-selective state schools a chance to visit Oxford for a taste of what it would be like to study here.
The University runs regular open days and has webpages aimed at teachers who want to help their students consider applying to Oxford.
