Go Beyond the Curriculum
Over the course of your programme with us, you’ll attend a range of tailored
sessions designed to support you to seize the future.
Weekly Socials
One of the best things about our online summer school is how diverse our student body is: over 2,500 students from 80 nationalities have joined!
While you’ll mostly spend time with the students who are studying the same programme as you – getting to know them through group activities, breakout rooms and teamwork – you’ll also get to meet students from other programmes during our weekly socials.
The video socials are a chance for you to get to know other students over a game, a quiz or a group activity run by our team. These events are informal, relaxed and friendly, so come along to take a break from academic study and make friends from around the world.
Level Up With Masterclasses
Masterclasses are skills-based workshops you attend alongside your course of choice.
Led by tutors (or external speakers) with expertise on a specific topic, these workshops are designed to bring out the best in you, present diverse perspectives and help you achieve your potential.
Masterclasses include topics like critical thinking, university applications and public speaking.
