Oxbridge

MPW has been helping students get into Oxford and Cambridge since 1973. In fact, our college was founded with the explicit aim of doing just that.

Applying to Oxford or Cambridge is incredibly competitive. Applicants have a roughly 1 in 6 chance of obtaining a place. The majority of courses ask for A*AA or A*A*A at A level. Successful candidates typically have seven or eight A* grades at GCSE, although it is important to stress that this is an average and is just one factor amongst many. Applicants will have to submit a very good personal statement, sit specialist entrance tests and perform well in an interview, and they may have to submit written work or a portfolio too.

We offer help in three main areas

Personal statement
The interview
Individual Tuition for Oxford and Cambridge Entrance Tests
