      Hi Holly! Informative, crisp and well edited video. I'm from India and I'm confused whether to go for English Literature or International Relations course. Since you mentioned in the video as well about IR course.
      Also Holly, I'd like your suggestion as to what time period is the best for max learning as well as visiting all possible landmarks in London. 2 weeks seems quite a short time somehow. Rest what about your experience?
      Also how do i go about the scholarship process? I'm from New Delhi,India.

    Going to be doing a masters in law at Cambridge from October. I checked the cost of these courses more out of interest than anything but the 4 week course costs over half of my fees to do a master's which is quite crazy. Obviously accommodation and food is covered but even still. All the same they look like really interesting courses.

Really wish that I will get another chance to live and study for a period in Cambridge :) And thank you Holly I saw your videos only since recently and start to watch them from the beginning. Deeply inspired by your attitudes towards life and study. Greetings from China!!

  • @fredw7219
    @fredw7219 Před 7 lety +57

    These courses really don't sit right with me.
    I hate to sound so left-wing, but these courses seem that they continue the trend that the richest people have the ability to access more support to insure that they have a better chance when applying, in comparison to someone like me who couldn't afford it.
    The website itself has 0 mention of funding, so it's apparently exclusively available to those who can afford it. So much for 'breaking the mould', or whatever.
    Even if there is some hidden funding that could be found, it's not doing a good job of making itself known.
    This sort of oozes elitism, which is something that I'm sure Oxbridge is trying to move away from. I suppose that could be why the company itself isn't affiliated with either university.
    Although I think it's incredibly selfless, and noble of you to give up your time to help out with the courses, I am not too sure whether I could do the same thing.
    Thank you for the video though, it's very enlightening to see this from a Cam student's perspective.

      Fred W stop being so butthurt. cheer up! it’s ok if you can’t afford it. i don’t exactly know how you feel as i actually went for the course and i’m lucky that my family can afford it but, trust me. you’re not missing out.

    • @esmehayes2
      @esmehayes2 Před 6 lety +27

      The point he was making was not to do with missing out, I believe, but more to do with the elitist stereotype Oxbridge has and how, despite the universities supposedly trying to break this stereotype, this programme reinforces it due to how it's only accessible to more 'well-off' individuals. I don't think he's being 'butt hurt' but actually making quite a fair point.

    The course seems really amazing and all, but I heard that these summer courses were run by private companies, rather than the university itself. Do you think it's still worth it going there?

I've decided to look into bursaries/ a scholarship and start raising funds for the Summer between year 11 and year 12 (£3,300 is a lot for two weeks and there's no way my parents will pay for it). Any ideas as to how to start/ go about doing this? Xx
