Christ Church is delighted to announce an Application Preparation Day for prospective Oxford applicants from state-maintained schools on Thursday 19 September 2024.

What is it?

The day is designed to help students understand how to finalise their Oxford applications and prepare for the various stages of the application process beyond the UCAS form. The day will involve workshops on personal statements, admissions tests, and interviews, as well as plenty of opportunity to ask questions of admissions staff, current Oxford students, and academics.

Lunch will be provided, and participants can also then stay with us overnight at Christ Church, completely free of charge, for the 20 September University of Oxford Open Day.
