Tap on the cards to see more details about our programme’s components.

Firstly we will help you make the right decision regarding course and University choice.

Whether this is through a meeting with our Academic Director or by arranging sessions with tutors from Oxford and/or Cambridge in your considered subject areas. We will help you come to an informed conclusion on one of the most important decisions you will ever make.

You will receive a full introduction to your Programme by your Programme Manager, along with your tutor, Form Mentor and our Academic Director. Throughout your time with us, they will be here to help.

A key element of your HSPS programme is your one-to-one tuition sessions, in which you will be mentored by an expert Cambridge tutor who was in the top 10% of their cohort. 

These sessions provide a chance to concentrate on challenging topics and areas where you need improvement. Your tutor has successfully navigated the application process and can offer valuable support and guidance to help you overcome difficulties in any area.

Honed in one-to-one support with your expert HSPS Cambridge tutor – all with homework and reports.

UniAdmissions has published over 100 books on the Oxbridge application process, and your programme gives you access to all of the relevant books specific to your application. These books include theory, practice materials, and more.

As a student enrolled with us, you’ll also have access to the UniAdmissions Academy and the exclusive UniAdmissions Reading Lists.

Finely-tuned HSPS resources in a range of mediums to help you practice and learn for your application.

Our full-day Intensive Courses provide comprehensive coverage of all aspects of your application. With the guidance of a tutor who scored in the top 10%, you’ll take a deep dive into your Personal Statement and Interview.

The sessions are highly interactive and offer opportunities for group discussion as well as individual question-and-answer sessions with your course tutor.

Highly effective one-day courses that cover key components of your application, including your Personal Statement and Interview.

Demonstrating a strong interest and passion for your subject is crucial in fulfilling the challenging application criteria of Cambridge.

Our Enrichment Seminars provide you with the opportunity to explore your subject in greater depth and beyond what is taught in the curriculum, which is exactly what admissions tutors are seeking. Starting from Week One of your programme, you will be invited to attend these sessions.

Develop a deeper understanding of your subject and go beyond your curriculum, as you would at Oxbridge.

When you enrol, you will be assigned to a Form, where you will have access to additional support. This includes fortnightly sessions that provide support for general aspects of your application. These sessions are led by the head of your form, your expert Form Mentor. 

Plus, you will be able to book an unlimited number of one-to-one sessions with your Form Mentor, who will be able to assist you with any issues you may be having throughout the application cycle. They will ensure you are utilising the components of your programme effectively and have a good plan in place for your preparation. 

You’ll join your Humanities Academic Head’s form group for guidance and unlimited mentoring sessions.

The UniAdmissions Portal is your link between all of the support and resources offered in your Programme and you. You’ll find everything included in your Programme available in your personalised Portal account.

As a student this is your Programme Hub. With monthly updates, you’ll stay in the loop and never miss a step in your preparation. Stay informed about tasks, important dates and your progress, and be confident that you’re always on the right path!

You’ll get access upon enrolment to a Programme.

A personalised online platform which will guide you through your Programme as a student, or help you track your child’s progress as a parent.

Students applying more than 12 months ahead of time will have access to our Head Start seminars, which are geared toward students who are in the early stages of the application process. These seminars provide a solid foundation for your future education and allow you to fully benefit from your UniAdmissions Programme.

Sessions are created specifically for our Head Start students and focus on topics that help establish a solid foundation for your education and teach valuable life skills.

You will get 12 additional hours of individual support through the Head Start Programme. This extra support is purpose-built to develop essential skills to give you an early advantage over other Oxbridge applicants through a comprehensive research-based learning experience. You’ll gain skills and a deeper subject knowledge that will hugely bolster your upcoming application.

Students on our Head Start Programmes will get additional hours of one-to-one tutoring time along with their Head Start seminars.

We are a private selective Oxbridge preparation school.

Our mission at UniAdmissions is to get every single one of the students we work with each year onto their chosen course at Oxford or Cambridge. Every student applying to study on our Programme goes through an initial assessment with our Admissions team. This is a 30-minute consultation (free of charge) where our team assesses your viability.

We accept students onto our exclusive Programmes based upon the following:

ACADEMIC PROFILE

Whether you have the right academic profile to be realistically considered by Oxford or Cambridge university.

WIDER PROFILE

Whether you have begun to demonstrate the kind of interest that is looked upon favourably by admissions tutors.

ATTITUDE

Whether you are approaching your application and admission to Oxbridge with the right mindset.

TIME COMMITMENT

Applying to Oxbridge takes a significant commitment – if a student cannot commit the time, we cannot work with them.

If you are applying to study HSPS at Cambridge there is no official Admissions Test, however, some of the colleges require you to take a written assessment so ensure to check whether you are applying to one of them. 

As part of your one-to-one tutoring, your tutor will be on hand to support and guide you as to what work you should submit. 

As part of the HSPS Programme, you will have a place on the Personal Statement and Interview Intensive Courses. 

Of course, the decision is ultimately yours and yours alone, but your tutor can assist with your decision process by offering up their own opinion. 

The HSPS Interview Academy is an online course which covers all aspects of what an HSPS Interview entails. As well, you will be taught tips and techniques to improve your Interview skills.
