Usama attended an Oxford Royale summer school in 2012 and found it to be a hugely beneficial experience, helping him to grow as a person and providing him with lots of fun and new friendships. He credits his successful application to Princeton in part to his experience with Oxford Royale, as he feels that it helped him to come across in interviews as a more rounded person, standing out from other applicants.

“Preparing my Oxford Royale application and attending the summer school was the highlight of
my year. Our group had a great vibe as everybody was motivated to socialise and try new things
in the short time we had together. Learning from new teachers with a different perspective gave
me a real boost. When the time came to apply to university I had the language, knowledge and
experiences to set myself apart as a serious candidate.”

“I was keen to find out what university would be like and how it would feel to be on a degree
course. My time with Oxford Royale really showed me this. It also encouraged me to think on
a much wider scale, and confirmed my desire to be in an international environment. I really
enjoyed the debates, the interactive group projects and the classes that were outside the main
subject of our course, aimed at broadening our horizons. The work on my Oxford Royale course
was challenging, but tackling such a challenge at that stage gave me confidence for the future.”
Thibaut attended an Oxford Royale summer school in 2015, where he enjoyed experiencing a different style of education and came to understand what was needed for him to get a
place at a top UK university. He gained a degree in materials engineering at Imperial College London and rapidly went on to co-found his own company, creating innovative packaging from sustainable materials.

“My Oxford Royale course really confirmed my belief that I wanted to go to university in the UK
and helped me to understand what I needed to do to get there. This decision, and studying at
Oxford Royale, has been the foundation for my career; I gained a degree in Engineering from
Imperial College London and then jointly founded a company. We’re developing a new edible,
biodegradable material based on seaweed that is set to revolutionise the packaging industry.
Learning with Oxford Royale was so enjoyable, it didn’t feel like studying at all.”
Konstantinos attended Oxford Royale’s Engineering course in 2015. Hailing from a small town in Greece, this was his first taste of life as a student studying abroad. The experience enabled him to grow in confidence, and he learned new skills that would later help him during his studies at Imperial College London, one of the world’s most prestigious universities.

“My time at Oxford Royale was a transformative experience. I had always dreamed of studying
abroad, but it seemed like an impossible goal. In two short weeks, the summer school showed
me that my dream was within reach. We visited Imperial College London, and I was immediately
impressed by the university’s world-class facilities and vibrant student community and Imperial
became my first choice for further study. Thanks to Oxford Royale I am living my dream.”
Our exceptional academic programme play an integral part in our students’ wider academic journey, but every year we also receive incredible feedback about the ways in which our programmes have impacted our students, whether in their decision making process, opening their eyes to new perspectives, allowing them to taste life studying their favourite subject, or simply making new friends and building their confidence!
Oxford Royale gave me an insight into a university course I was interested in. Apart from the great academic courses the activities were extremely enjoyable and unforgettable. I really recommend Oxford Royale to everyone who wants to gain an insight into what university is like.
I met friends that I value more than friends I’ve known for longer periods of time. I learned more about medicine than I did in a full year of Biology at my IBDP school. This truly changed my life and my point of view on bring a Doctor.
It was definitely one of the best summers of my life and I enjoyed every single day of it. I got to make countless new friends from all around the world. I’ve experienced so many new things and I couldn’t be happier that I decided to join Oxford Royale.
I wanted to exercise my independence in preparation for college, and felt that going overseas in a new country would be an excellent way to do that. The courses at Oxford Royale appealed to me most as there is a good mix of teaching hours and excursions and free time.
