Home School Support Individual Guidance Consultations for Schools

Each year, we meet up to 500 potential Oxbridge Applicants for Private Consultations, helping them determine their next steps towards university.

An Individual Guidance Consultation is a one-hour strategy and advisory session between a student and one of our Senior Consultants. The session provides both you and the student with research-driven insights into the admissions process, enabling them to make the best decisions for their application going forward to maximise their chances of success.

This package is for students in Year 12 wanting advice on their subject pathway, or for students in Year 11 to help narrow down their A-level or IB pathways based on university goals.

What's covered:

Drawing on our 20+ years of experience and research, and depending on the needs of the student, our Oxbridge-graduate consultants will cover areas such as:
  • How courses at various universities, including Oxford and Cambridge, differ from one another
  • How the application statistics for various pathways differ
  • How the various admissions tests work, including which university/course requires which test
  • What the grade requirements are for each course, and whether this differs between universities

 

Together, the student and consultant will:
  • Identify the student’s personal strengths and weaknesses in order to determine the best pathway to follow
  • Shape the student’s five university choices for the UCAS form
  • Outline reading suggestions and set out a plan for further preparation relating to the student’s chosen course going forward

 

Following the consultation, our Consultants send comprehensive written feedback (submitted within 48 hours of the meeting), as well as relevant Course Reports, detailing the next steps we recommend and useful resources for further preparation.

Hear From Our School Partners

 

"At Cardiff Sixth Form College, one of the cornerstones of our provision is that we 'demand and deliver excellence'. Our partnership with Oxbridge Applications, is a wonderful example of this, with expert guidance provided for our students and expert training provided for our staff in the pursuit of the highest university ambitions."

Gareth Collier, Principal, Cardiff Sixth Form College

"Oxbridge Applications have offered an invaluable service in supplementing Marlborough College's programme of preparation for Oxbridge admissions tests and interviews. Their bespoke approach is flexible but robust, and has offered our pupils greater exposure to admissions test papers and interviews. The quality of their tutors always impresses our pupils, whose feedback is consistently positive."

Andrew Oxburgh, Head of Oxbridge, Marlborough College

"We have been really happy with the way Oxbridge Applications have helped to guide our students through the demands of the application process, providing high quality feedback and support at all stages."

Ruth Lexton, Head of Oxbridge, Wellington College

“Thank you so much for the interview day today. The students were nervous (which is normal) but they all commented on just how interesting and stimulating the interviews were. They all commented on the professionalism of the tutors, and they all learned a lot from the experience. They will certainly be more confident and prepared for any Oxbridge interviews that they might face in the future. Thank you again for a wonderful event!! We look forward to working with you again in the future!"

Peter Sullivan, British School of Madrid

“Another great day and the students, as ever, got a huge amount out of it. We hope to see you next year!”

Ed Lamb, Davenport High School

I just wanted to let you know the wonderful news that [student] has received an offer! I have no doubt that the two interviews with you played a massively vital role in securing this offer and wish to offer my most profound gratitude. Your patient and kindly approach really settled his nerves and he performed superbly well in his interviews with Cambridge. A huge "thank you" to Alison and Alicia for all of your help.

House Mistress at King's Ely School

We’ve had Oxbridge Applications help us for eight years. Efficiency, quality and adaptability are what recommend them to us, and they are consistently rated ‘outstanding’ by the pupils.

Guy Nobes, Marlborough College

Can I just say a huge thank you to you and your team. You have been amazing. The amount and quality of support has been phenomenal and we are incredibly grateful.

Nick Berman, Future Academies

Thank you so much for this afternoon with our Year 12s - the session was really useful and the feedback has been great.

Jane Collier, Head of University Advice, Hurtwood House

Julia Johnson, Emanuel School

“Thank you again - from my point of view, the remote interviews worked really well. It was good to have access to a larger number of tutors, to give all the pupils two interviews, and for me to be able to drop in on them too. I was particularly impressed with Alison's interviewing! Really helpful!

School Partner

Terry McDermott, Surbiton High School

“I have used Oxbridge Applications with many students over the years and have found them to be excellent. They have contributed to innovations in our Oxbridge support which has seen our Oxbridge offers at Surbiton High triple in recent years when most independent schools are seeing their offers go in the opposite direction. I am happy to use their services year after year."
