Fitzwilliam College Foundation Year Taster Day

Fitzwilliam College’s Foundation Year Taster Day is an in-person visit for students interested in the Cambridge Arts and Humanities Foundation Year. The event gives attendees a chance to spend time at Fitzwilliam College, meet current students, and hear from staff and academics about what studying at Cambridge could involve.

The day includes workshops that explain the Foundation Year and the application process, alongside taster sessions in subjects that participants may be able to study. It is designed to help prospective applicants understand the programme, what it is like to study in this area, and how to prepare a strong application.

The event is aimed at students in Years 12 and 13. The college also notes that priority is given to students and schools from its Link Areas and other underrepresented regions, and encourages attendees to check the Foundation Year eligibility requirements before applying.
