About Program
The Gap semester offers students on a gap year - or undergraduates - an inspiring study abroad experience. A wide variety of courses is offered, from which students choose five subject areas. Courses are taught in small seminar groups, or by individual tutorials. Our interactive teaching approach is similar to the Oxbridge university style, encouraging maximum student participation. This instils confidence and is a great preparation for college-level work.
The course has been running for many years, and the college is home to over 100 students from over 20 countries, enabling you to immerse yourself in our vibrant international student community. Living in the most famous and historic centre of learning in England provides an inspirational backdrop.
A full schedule of visits and activities balances the academic work.
