“Oxford Scholastica was a great program for my daughters during the summer of 2017. They were able to get hands on experience in the medical field and they also enjoyed the in depth lectures that were given at Oxford.”

Dear Hana, It was a pleasure to have Tala on our Young Doctors’ Academy, and I’m really pleased that you feel that the vision of OSA is worthwhile – helping students think about their future is very important to us. Best wishes, Shannon

“it was pretty fun. My young doctors class was really good. There were some times where i did feel lonely though. i would have felt much better if there was more interaction between the two accommodations and overall, just more social activities. it was definitely a summer i will never forget, and i learnt a lot about both medicine and myself. i enjoyed meeting so many new people and learning what their lives are like. i definitely left Oxford as a different individual. i am now way more outgoing, proud of my culture, and more confident in my beliefs and opinions.”

It definitely helps them confirm that the direction they are taking is, to a great extent, what they really aspire to. Plus, lots of fun and relationships building with people from all around the world. The Scholastica team is just so friendly and attentionate. Worth every penny, zero hesitation. Go ahead!”

Dear Joe, Thank you for this kind review. I'm really glad that you and Lara enjoyed your experience with Scholastica and that she found our Young Laywers' Academy a useful way to explore her career and studying options. It's great to hear she built some strong friendships whilst at with us in Oxford. We wish her the very best for the future. Please do keep in touch - we'd love to hear from you both at any time. Best wishes, Tim

“It was truly an exciting and learning experience for my daughter. It helped her to discover the passion of being a doctor and chose medicine as her career. Various assignments , activities and exposure to real patients, during this course, helped her in recognizing her own strengths and at the same time find ways to work upon her areas for development. Most importantly she made good friends which are always there to help her in different tasks of life e.g when she had to prepare for an interview in a medical college, she asked her Scholastica friends if anyone can give any suggestion regarding interviews. To my surprise all of them came up with so many suggestions and it really helped her out. Today she is in a medical college and I am happy that I enrolled her in Oxford Scholastica Summer Course.”

“Frank gained his two weeks Oxford Scholastica Academy by high marks and a convincing presentation of his motivation to the board of his school. It felt like a wonderful opportunity and Frank was very eager to grab it. Frank certainly made the most of his weeks in Oxford. In his words "a once in a lifetime experience". He was very content with the intellectual challenges and is still frequently in contact with fellow scholars from all over the world.”

Best wishes, Jamie

“The overall experience is memorable, and life-changing. Besides making friends from all over the world, I have discovered myself in the process, confirmed my interests and nurtured my passion for medicine. The social and cultural aspects were fantastic. Oxford Scholastica has also given me exposure to different things, such as debating, history, philosophy etc. I've learnt some fascinating things in the Young Doctors Academy, however, would've enjoyed it even more if there were longer lesson times.”

Hi Su Hwa, Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review and for the feedback on class length - we are always looking to fine tune our balance in order to pack in as much as we can. Good luck with your preparation for studying medicine and do let us know how you get on. Best wishes, Jeremy

“Our son (Dutch, 17 years at the time) spent 2 weeks at Oxford Scholastica in the summer of 2015. He was especially impressed with the quality of the tutors. He went on to apply at one of Oxford's colleges and was over the moon to get an offer. His summer school experience most certainly helped him make up his mind about applying yes or no, and gave him a valuable first introduction into the world of Oxford.”

Helpful Report

“I enrolled in the OSA academy in August 2015 and enjoyed my time there immensely. Having taken up Psychology, I enjoyed the subject a lot and loved the central location of the accomodation (the rooms were superb). If asked for an advice, I would want going a little less strict on the timetables/schedules and cooperating with the needs of students a bit more warmly. Otherwise the school was great and I am happy to be able to call it a life experience of mine.”

Hi Rijah, Many thanks for your words, good to hear that you enjoyed the Psychology Academy so much! Thanks for the suggestion on the timetable - we try to pack in as much as possible so that you can make the most of your two weeks with us but I appreciate it's important to balance this. We're always thinking of ways we can make OSA even better, so we'll have a think about this as a team! Do keep in touch as we would love to hear what you get up to in the future. Best wishes, Jamie
