Bridging the gap between young people and their futures.
The University Academy is a 5 week programme that provides students in Year 12 with everything they need to understand, apply for and thrive at University in the UK. The idea is that every student enters the summer between Year 12 and 13 with the same knowledge, research skills and support to explore their university options.
The first programme will start in January 2027 and is limited to 99 participants.
Registration for January 2027 is now open!
The next round starts on Thursday 28th January 2027. Please complete this form to register for the next round.
