How to Apply to Cambridge University as an International Student

In this video, I walk through the application process at Cambridge University from start to finish, highlighting each step which international students should be aware of. We talk about what qualifications are required (including English language requirements), transcripts, written work submissions, the UCAS application (including personal statement), how to choose a college in Cambridge, the SAQ, the interview, competition at Cambridge, the results of the application, and about finance and scholarships. It's quite detailed, so do take notes and come back to it when required. I do hope this video breaks down the process into something more manageable!

    hey!! im from Singapore and my biggest concern is predicted grades! I'd be taking my mid years and mock exams in some time and I'm not too sure if i can meet the predicted grades requirements and i did hear that they look at results from the previous year and i didn't really do well enough last year! My question would be that if i take a gap year before applying to Cambridge, would they still look at predicted grades or school exams or would they look at just the a level results?

    Cambridge don't give many academic scholarships. There are some bursaries for those from lower income families, and you can get choral or organ scholarships. Academic scholarships tend to be offered only once you start studies at Cambridge, but they do not offer much money (will still have to pay fees)

    hello, I thought I’d just come forward and ask you about something. I'm swiss and our school system is quite different from most. There are several levels you can do secondary school in. When I gratuade I can automatically get into any swiss university of my choice. However I always wanted to study abroad. The tricky thing is that I'll have to repeat my last year of high school because of mental health issues. I'm doing great now but I'm afraid I’m not going to stand a chance even if I have top grades when I gratuade. Do you think there could still be the slightest possibility for me to get?

I don't get it you said that we have to apply in the final year of our school and deadline is 15 October That means we have to submit the application before giving our class 12 exams. How will they select us and how will we give other tests then? I am so confused. Can you please clear this confusion? ( I want to pursue my career in literature)

    Yes that's right, you apply for college before your final exams. Your teachers give you 'predicted grades', then Cambridge will review your application and may invite you for interview. If you are successful at the interview, they will give you an 'offer', which means you gain admission provided you meet the grade requirements in your 12th grade exams. I hope this makes sense?
