Prepare to Study

Studying at Cambridge 

The online learning tool has been designed to help international students prepare for studies at Cambridge prior to arrival. 

The interactive training modules are designed primarily for students who use English as a second language and have not previously studied in the UK, although other international students unfamiliar with UK Higher Education and Cambridge may find some aspects useful. Whilst the modules have been written for postgraduate students, undergraduates are likely to find them a useful introduction to study at Cambridge in the context of developing academic English skills.

The aim of the tool is to help you understand what to expect from academic study in the UK, introduce you to cultural aspects of University life, and support your transition to Cambridge's teaching and learning methods. 

You will receive information from your College, Faculty or Department to help you prepare for studies. You may also find it useful to look through the general information for new students.
