Girton College – Upcoming Outreach Events (masterclasses, taster days, webinars)

Girton College's outreach programme offers a mix of in-person taster days, online masterclasses, webinars and short programmes designed for secondary school students and teachers. The college runs subject-specific taster days (for example Biological Natural Sciences, Philosophy & TRPR, Classics/Archaeology/ASNaC, Human, Social & Political Sciences) that run 10:00–16:00 and include admissions talks, taster lectures, college tours, student Q&A and personal-statement workshops.

Booking for many Girton taster days opens the week beginning 5 January 2026 with decisions communicated the week beginning 2 February 2026. In addition to one-day taster events, Girton promotes and links to a wider set of University of Cambridge programmes: online webinar series (Applicant Support Programme), the Young Researchers online super-curricular projects for Year 10 state-school students, humanities writing competitions for Year 12, Target Oxbridge and the Exploring Law Conference (residential conference with a mix of fully funded and self-funded places).

Support measures such as reimbursements for public transport (for eligible state-school applicants) and coach-travel contributions for some school-collaboration days are provided where stated. How to apply and further details are available via the links on the Girton outreach pages; teachers can nominate students for many events and queries can be sent to access@girton.
