What do our alumni have to say?

Our previous participants have some truly
inspiring stories to tell.

“Our architecture teacher teaches us a lot from the history of architecture to designing in the present day, and about our future careers as architects. It has made me want to become an architect or at least study architecture. Today we've talked about portfolios and what is necessary for that next movement to college and to get accepted into University. It's helped me a lot to prepare for the next two years, and where I'm going to be heading to get to that point.”

Emma

Architecture student in Cambridge

“I've loved the debates in my law classes - they've really helped improve my English and public speaking. My favourite trip was to London despite the rain. I've learned so much about college applications from my teachers, mentors and international peers. This experience is so unique and I'll absolutely reference it in my university applications. Getting to study at Cambridge has opened my mind to new possibilities and I'm so thankful for this opportunity.”

Dominika

Law student in Cambridge

“My favourite part of the experience is making friends and doing the activities because I feel like it's really fun and the mentors really work hard to make it possible. Before coming to Immerse, I was worried about making friends. I was quite introverted, so I'm scared to go up to people and talk to them. But now I feel like I've made many friends and I'm really happy about that.”

Kayanne

Architecture student in Cambridge

“I found out about the programme because my parents and I were looking for a summer programme to do this summer, and then we found Immerse. The programme says it's in Cambridge, which I think is a really precious experience. My experience is just really amazing because not a lot of people get the opportunity to actually come to Cambridge with such a good university and just live in a college and meet like-minded people and have professors teach you some university knowledge that you won't get taught at school.”

Law student in Cambridge

Have a Chemistry-filled summer in Cambridge

Stay on campus

You will live in a Cambridge college during the summer research programme chemistry in Cambridge. A few weeks before you arrive, we will tell you which college you are in. Your placement depends on your arrival dates and subject choices. If you want to stay with a friend or a sibling, just let us know. We will try our best to meet your request.

Enjoy formal dinners

You will have two special dinners in the college hall. The first dinner happens during your first week. The second takes place after the graduation ceremony. Both meals come with three courses that show off Cambridge traditions.

Celebrate at graduation

You will take part in a graduation ceremony in a beautiful old Cambridge hall. You will listen to brief speeches and receive your certificate. Teachers, friends, and guests will join you on this day. The celebration ends with another formal dinner to mark your success.

Explore Oxford and London

You will go on two-day trips. One day, you will tour Oxford and its many colleges. On another day, you can visit London. In London, you will see famous sites and have some free time to go shopping.

Engaging activities

Friendly mentors plan a range of afternoon activities. You might go punting on the River Cam, play a unique game of football, or solve a murder mystery. There is always something interesting to do.

Evening events

In the evenings, you can relax. You may listen to a guest speaker, take part in a talent show, join a cake and painting night, or compete in a quiz or sports tournament. There is some time for study, too, but most nights are for unwinding with new friends.

Academic Insights: Parent’s Perspective Video

It’s been great having university students and graduates as mentors. It’s given my daughter insights directly from people studying or teaching at Cambridge, rather than just remote instructors. This has been invaluable for her, and we can tell she’s been inspired by them. When we speak with her, we hear how much more confident and at ease she’s become.
