Should I apply?

Step 1 - Choose a course

Consider whether Christ's offers a course that you will love. We encourage you to look into the advantages of living in the College community and being taught in small-group supervisions with experts in your subject.

• List of courses at Christ's College, Cambridge

Some of you will be from countries where local university subject choices are quite different in scope. Here at Cambridge, we ask you to choose just one of the courses that we offer. Don't be daunted by this choice, however, because within our courses, there is often a lot of flexibility.

NB. It is not possible to apply to both Cambridge and Oxford, so if you like courses at both universities, you must choose between us. 
 

Step 2 - Check the entrance requirements

You will need to show that you'll have an appropriate academic background for your chosen course in order to be considered for a place. Here at Christ's, we admit students with a wide range of qualifications around the world, but we advise every new prospective applicant to check the detail carefully for your specific qualification and chosen course as early as possible, as particular grades/scores, subjects or, in some cases, further qualifications may be needed.

There are a number of different 'typical requirements' to look at:

• You will need to meet or exceed our standard requirements for your qualification either in exams you have already taken or in exams you will be taking during the academic year when you apply (we work with predicted grades or scores for exams you have not taken at the time of application). Please see the International entrance requirements and send us an email if your qualification is not listed, or if you are not sure if you can meet one of the other requirements.
   
• You will need to meet any subject requirements for your chosen course.
  You should check the course requirements on both the university course page (see the entry requirements tab) and the Christ's College subject page.  
   
• If your native language is not English, you may need to meet our English language requirements.
   
• You must register for an Admissions Assessment by the relevant deadline if a 'pre-interview assessment' is required for your course (it's needed for some courses but not others). The registration deadline is 1 October (17:00 UK time) for Medicine and Computer Science applicants and 15 October (18:00 UK time) for students applying for other courses that have a required pre-interview assessment. There is no need to register if your course has an assessment 'at-interivew' as those are arranged by the admissions office if you are invited for interview.
