Campus Oxford

There are so many wonderful aspects of this program. I loved being able to take small-group classes with some of the best teachers I've ever had. Oxford is an inspiring and stunning city that I never got tired of exploring--with its incredible history and resources the whole city became a classroom for me. Living and becoming friends with students from all over the world was another amazing opportunity. I found there was a great balance between learning, socializing, and traveling (especially around Britain).

This was a great program to do coming out of being stuck in my home all school year! I would recommend this program to nearly anyone, especially those who love learning just as much as they love new experiences. Extremely allergy friendly and understanding of concerns, couldn’t of had a better time anywhere else! If you have any questions about the program, don’t hesitate to reach out to the staff, they are extremely welcoming and useful. I made lots of international friends that I’ll stay in contact with for a long time!

My experience at Oxford university sparked my interest in philosophy, which is my current field of study. More than that, my time in Oxford allowed me to experience new cultures, new thought processes, and most importantly, allowed me to experience a side of myself that was unplugged from the media and more in tune with my surroundings. I am daily inspired by my time there in my writing and in my day to day life.

As an American student wishing to study at a UK university, this program was perfect. I was nervous at first, but Oxford has always been my dream. As soon as I got off the plane, I met one of the many best friends I created. We walked together to the campus and immediately were greeted with other excited teens. Everyone was so welcoming, which is something I hadn't experienced on other summer programs. There was no drama, only kindness and joy. The greatest feeling was when we were walking into Brasenose and there were tourists standing outside the door. My friends and I felt so privileged to have a key when all the tourists started complaining and trying to get in themselves. At that moment, I realized how incredible those two weeks were, and I would do anything to go back to see my friends, amazing counselors, and the beautiful architecture.

I had the best time at CASP in Cambridge. Being right in the town made me fall in love with Cambridge and convinced me to apply to to the University. Throughout the program, I tried things that I had no idea I'd enjoy, like debating and drama. It was an experience that I will never be able to forget.
