The 2 weeks have gone by so fast, the tutors are amazing and I have learnt so much but have also had so much fun outside the classroom with different activities everyday.
Great experience in Oxford summer programme! I had met wonderful tutors and made many friends from different countries.
I am 16 years old and participated in the Creative Writing course at Somerville college in Oxford! Starting with the airport transfers to and from Oxford, everything went so smoothly! The group leaders/ coordinators were so incredible and made the experience truly amazing! The learning itself was everything and more, I've never been so excited to go to class and do my homework. Words cannot describe how grateful I am for Oxford summer courses. Every day we did something new, and every day was full of adventures, learning, and hundreds of memories. I made life long friends in the span of two weeks and will never forget this experience!
Many different people from different country’s. Good course structure, many freedoms and enjoyable accommodation.
A one of a lifetime experience everyone should have. A chance to get freedom, have a better view in what you want for your career path, and meet new people along the way.
I had a great time at Oxford Summer Courses! The cultural experiences, activities, and classes were like nothing else!
I had a great time at Oxford summer courses. It was truly a multicultural experience. Not only my environmental science course was stimulating and engaging, but also the many activities we did each day were fun and helped me make new acquaintances. I met one of my best friends at Oxford Summer Courses and I would never have if it wasn’t for this experience. The marketing group was kind and joyful, Agreema and Ella especially.
My Daughter had a great experience, she travelled from California alone and experienced the college life. I am very happy that she was in good hands, made great friends, learned a lot and had lots of fun, thank you Oxford summer courses you gave me a good support from the beginning to the end to no worry about her, thank you for taking care of all the teens and for your guidance.
Was the best experience ever! I was definitely scared to go to a new country and be without my family for 2 weeks, but it was a very comfortable and welcoming environment. My engineering tutor knew what he was teaching, was extremely helpful when answering questions and during building projects. It was easy meeting people and making friends from all around the world. I would recommend taking a course here to everyone.
Getting to know everyone in my class and the counselors was one of the best parts. Only downside was having to leave :(
Oxford Summer Courses provided a transformative experience that exceeded my expectations. From 23.07.23 to 05.08.23, I immersed myself in a world of intellectual stimulation and personal growth. The program's curriculum was rigorous yet engaging, challenging me to expand my knowledge and critical thinking skills. I joined Maths Explorers, and Story Explorers.
One of the most valuable aspects was the opportunity to forge lasting friendships with peers from diverse backgrounds. Together, we navigated through academic challenges, shared cultural insights, and created unforgettable memories. The camaraderie fostered during those two weeks was truly priceless.
The faculty members - Mr. Tom, Mr. Phillip, Ms. Becky, Ms. Leah, Ms. Maddy, and Ms. Natalie - were exceptional, offering expertise and guidance that enriched my learning journey. I honed my communication, research, and problem-solving skills through interactive workshops and discussions. Each day presented new opportunities for growth and discovery.
Reflecting on my experience, I am grateful for the invaluable lessons learned and the friendships made. Oxford Summer Courses not only broadened my academic horizons but also instilled in me a deeper appreciation for lifelong learning and cultural exchange. It was truly a life-changing experience that I will cherish for years to come.
Thank you for your dedication, encouragement, and for making this experience truly unforgettable.
I'm eagerly awaiting OSC 2024!
Warm Regards,

I was supposed to attend summer classes last year, but after I paid the fees they never got back to me. I tried calling them but no one answers the phone. I emailed them multiple times, and they’ve been ignoring me for the past year. Be careful with them!

Horrible scam. I paid £5000 to attend classes that were postponed several times during covid - then was given a voucher to use on their online academic platform. No one ever responded when I tried to use that voucher. I tried contacting them several times I never got any answer (it’s been years) - don’t waste your money!
Edit: They just responded below by saying that I didn't contact them to try to use the voucher... And ask me to write them an email.
I have been trying to reach them on that email for YEARS and they never answered.

Oxford Summer Courses was the best summer I'd ever experienced! I not only discovered my passions, but I also met new people from all over the world with whom I will remain friends for the rest of my life. We went to many restaurants for lunch and dinner in Oxford, and they were all fantastic! The teachers were all kind and my room had a bathroom attached and had air conditioning/heating which was great. I recommend this to anyone who would not only want to learn more about something they love but also experience a summer like they have never had! This was an amazing experience, and I can't wait to attend again!
I’m a student of MBA Finance program of Oxford college. I have experienced excellent lectures panel & management team of Oxford. Dr Dhanushka gave us a commendable support on our assignments. Those sessions were really helpful for me to get a good marks through out the program. I recommend Oxford college for your MBA qualification

The experience was just great, specially learning with different nationalities and mindset students and also to long lasting life time friendships. This experience helped me to focus on what subjects i should study and what shouldn't. Oxford is just doing a great by providing the bestest learning and University experience to students.
There are entirely exploitative. Expensive program with bad lodging, bad food, boring activities with unsafe experiences, untrained students as counselors and terrible customer service and communication with parents. I was told that - while on an excursion- a random person continued to yell racist comments to one of the Asian students (“go home!” and other things I won’t say etc). The counselors didn’t intervene, and they didn’t talk to the students as a whole after to check in after experiencing such hostility away from their parents.
Other than enjoying the company of the other students, I only heard complaints about everything else. My own 1:1 with the program director demonstrated a complete lack of customer service mentality. The earned this rating. Save yourself the time and worry. Find a different program.

Worst experience! Terrible people in charge who are mean to you if they do not like you. They put you down. The "teachers" are not real Oxford teachers - and the "homework" isn't real if you care about learning. For all the money, you go to free British Museum and other boring outings. This is a scam. Avoid or find another program
