Unfortunately, we cannot consider applications for the University of Cambridge Summer School once the deadline has passed. This deadline was widely promoted across our website, social media channels, email communications, and during webinars, so unfortunately, we are unable to offer extensions. 

However, there are still 12 fantastic summer schools open for applications, with the deadline for these closing at midday on Thursday 5 March 2026. Historically, many students who don’t attend the Cambridge Summer School, but another summer school still go on to apply to the University of Cambridge via UCAS the following year, and taking part in a different summer school can strengthen your UCAS statement and overall university application. 

We also recommend attending or watching the recording of our webinar on summer schools with a dedicated section focused on choosing the right summer school for you which will help you pick the university and programme that best suits your interests and goals. You can either register to attend or access the recording at the below links.
