UCL are offering Year 12 Summer Schools – Deadline 9th March 2022
UCL’s Access and Widening Participation Office is already looking ahead to the summer months. Applications opened this week for our Year 12 Summer Schools.
What can I study on the Summer School?
At UCL, we have more than 400 undergraduate degrees to pick from! So it’s important that our Summer School reflects this and has a wide range of subjects to pick from:
| Subject | Online | Residential |
|---|---|---|
| Languages and Cultures, Laws, Maths and Computer Science, Psychology and Education | 20 and 21 July** | 26 – 28 July |
| Archaeology, Architecture, Biosciences, Geography, Physics | 3 and 4 August | 9 – 11 August |
| Chemical Engineering, Economics, Fine Art, History, Natural Sciences | 16 and 17 August | 23 – 25 August |
*S5 in Scotland or Year 13 in Northern Ireland
**Please note, these two days may overlap with term time in some areas of the UK. Any live sessions for these subjects will be delivered after 4:00 pm to ensure you can attend.
Application Information:
- To attend our programmes, you must meet certain eligibility criteria.
- Applications are not selected on a first-come-first-served basis, so this will not affect any application outcomes.
- All applications will go through the Sutton Trust. If you have any problems with the application form, contact the Sutton Trust in the first instance.
Frequently asked questions:
Do I have to pay for these summer schools?
No! Our Summer Schools are completely free to attend.
Can my friend/family member take part too?
Only applicants who applied through our system and have been notified that they have a place on the Summer School can attend and take part in the Summer School.
When will I hear if I have a place?
This varies for each subject. If the application deadline gets extended for any reason, we will email existing applicants to let them know the new deadline date. We aim to have students notified of their outcome in early May. We usually shortlist around 7000 applications for our various activities, so it can take some time. Please be patient, and rest assured that you will be notified whatever your outcome. Please do not email to ask about the status of your application, as this significantly slows down the shortlisting process.
Can I come to the residential part of the Summer School and not do the online sessions?
We expect all students to attend both the online and residential parts of the summer school. It will not be possible to only attend one part on its own.
I’ve already applied to another Summer School, can I apply to yours as well?
You can only apply to one Sutton Trust Summer School. Therefore, if you have applied to a Summer School which is not in partnership with the Sutton Trust, you are welcome to apply to one at UCL as well. Just make sure the dates don’t overlap with our Summer School. You can’t attend more than one Summer School at once.
My question hasn’t been answered here. What do I do?
Email [email protected] with your query, and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.
