An interview day includes an interview with a faculty member, an opportunity to hear more about our programmes and ethos, to discuss your accommodation needs and financial situation, and to chat with current students.  You can also choose to attend a lecture and join in chapel when it's on.  This year we are offering a mixture of in-person interview dates and Zoom interview dates. Take a look at the interview day dates that work for you to work out when you need to apply.
