AS A STUDENT AT LORETO WE SUPPORT YOUR NEXT STEPS TO UNIVERSITY OR ONTO THE CAREER LADDER.

Loreto offers a programme for high achievers that prepares students for the distinctive demands of Oxford and Cambridge (Oxbridge) and other “research intensive” Russell Group universities.
The college runs a programme for potential Oxbridge students. The programme develops students’ debating and thinking skills, while providing insight into and knowledge of the application process. It includes presentations from university staff, a competitive university conference and a number of practice interviews.

OXBRIDGE PROGRAMME

Our in-house team of specialist teachers have years of experience in successfully guiding applicants. Academics from both universities regularly visit Loreto and deliver a range of sessions including subject specific classes and application seminars. They aim to make sure that the students are appropriate for the demands of Oxford and Cambridge and would thrive in the demanding environment.

Every year, on average the amount of Loreto supported applicants who gain an offer; is double that of the national rate. This is a real credit to the students’ ability, hard work and the dedicated support given by Loreto. Former Loreto students who are now holding places at Oxford and Cambridge are studying a wide range of courses from Medicine and Mathematics to Music, from English and  Economics to Engineering and from French to Fine Art.
