Tap on the cards to see more details about our programme’s components.
Application Support
Firstly we will help you make the right decision regarding course and University choice.
Whether this is through a meeting with our Academic Director or by arranging sessions with tutors from Oxford and/or Cambridge in your considered subject areas. We will help you come to an informed conclusion on one of the most important decisions you will ever make.
You will receive a full introduction to your Programme by your Programme Team, along with your tutor, Form Mentor and our Academic Director. Throughout your time with us, they will be here to help.
Unlimited One-To-One Tutoring
UniAdmissions students have access to a limitless number of one-to-one tuition hours. Every session in your History Programme will be with an expert tutor who will walk you through the topic at hand.
The one-to-one sessions are an opportunity to focus on problem areas and topics you find difficult. Your tutor has been through the process with flying colours, so will be able to provide you with the right support and guidance.
Unlimited one-to-one support with your expert History Oxbridge tutor – all with homework and reports.
Comprehensive Materials
UniAdmissions have written and published over 100 books on the Oxbridge application – you’ll have access to all of the relevant books for your application, containing subject theory, practice material, and more.
You’ll also have access to the UniAdmissions Academy, our advanced HAT and HAA question banks and the UniAdmissions History Reading List – unique to students enrolled with us.
Finely-tuned History resources in a range of mediums to help you practice and learn for your application.
Intensive Courses
Our full-day intensive courses cover everything you could need to know about your application. Take a deep dive into your Personal Statement, HAT and Interview with a tutor who scored in the top 10%.
These sessions are highly interactive and will allow you to ask any lingering questions to your course tutor both in group sessions and individually.
Highly effective one-day courses that cover key components of your application, including your Personal Statement, Admissions Test and Interview.
Enrichment Seminars
Wider reading is one of Oxbridge’s notoriously difficult application criteria to fulfil. That’s where our Enrichment Seminars come in.
What this criterion distils down to is showing interest and passion for your subject. From week one of your Programme, you’ll be invited to your subject-specific Enrichment Seminar and you will be exposed to your subject beyond simply what the curriculum teaches – this is exactly what Admissions tutors are looking for.
Develop a deeper understanding of your subject and go beyond your curriculum, as you would at Oxbridge.
Mentoring
Every student will receive supplementary assistance from their designated mentor – a senior tutor.
Your Mentor will be there to support you with complex areas of your application and will assist you in any areas of difficulty throughout their programme. This could be (but is not limited to) support navigating the UCAS system, identifying and securing relevant work experience, and guidance on letters of reference.
You’ll be assigned an academic Form Mentor for guidance and unlimited mentoring sessions.
Personalised Portal
The UniAdmissions Portal is your link between all of the support and resources offered in your Programme and you. You’ll find everything included in your Programme available in your personalised Portal account.
As a student this is your Programme Hub. With monthly updates, you’ll stay in the loop and never miss a step in your preparation. Stay informed about tasks, important dates and your progress, and be confident that you’re always on the right path!
You’ll get access upon enrolment to a Programme.
A personalised online platform which will guide you through your Programme as a student, or help you track your child’s progress as a parent.
Your Dream Offer
Every element of the support we provide is squarely focused on increasing your chance of earning a place to study at Oxbridge. 57% of our engaged students were ultimately offered their place.
We have a limited number of places available.
We have spent over a decade guiding hundreds of students to their place at Oxford and Cambridge. To achieve our success rates we implement the Scholar Limit, which restricts how many applicants we admit to our Programmes.

We are a private selective Oxbridge preparation school.
Our mission at UniAdmissions is to get every single one of the students we work with each year onto their chosen course at Oxford or Cambridge. Every student applying to study on our Programme goes through an initial assessment with our Admissions team. This is a 30-minute consultation (free of charge) where our team assesses your viability. Based on this, you may be offered a place if there are spaces remaining in the cohort.
We accept students onto our exclusive Programmes based upon the following:
ACADEMIC PROFILE
Whether you have the right academic profile to be realistically considered by Oxford or Cambridge university.
WIDER PROFILE
Whether you have begun to demonstrate the kind of interest that is looked upon favourably by admissions tutors.
ATTITUDE
Whether you are approaching your application and admission to Oxbridge with the right mindset.
TIME COMMITMENT
Applying to Oxbridge takes a significant commitment – if a student cannot commit the time, we cannot work with them.

FAQs
Got some questions about the Full-Blue Oxbridge History Programme? You might just find the answer here. If not, you can always reach out to us and we’ll be happy to help!
Do you really offer "unlimited tutoring"?
Yes, we do! Each of our students can book as many one-to-one tutoring sessions as they wish for the duration of their UniAdmissions programme. These sessions can be used to cover any area of the Oxbridge application process, including the Personal Statement, admissions tests, interviews and general advice relating to topics like college selection and wider reading.
Why are there limited places available?
At UniAdmissions, we’ve guided hundreds of students to Oxford and Cambridge for more than a decade, achieving success rates over three times the national average. To maintain this, we implement the Scholar Limit, restricting programme admissions to ensure every student receives the high-quality teaching and support they deserve. While we support more applicants each year, the Scholar Limit ensures we uphold our standards and maximize students’ chances of success. If capacity is full, you can enrol early for the next cohort, securing your spot at the current fee and gaining immediate access to the UniAdmissions Portal and its resources.
Alternatively, you can join our waitlist or apply for the Fellows Programme, which allows you to start anytime with added benefits.
Do I have to sit the HAA?
The History Admissions Assessment (HAA) is not used by all Cambridge colleges, with the following colleges requiring candidates to sit it:
Clare, Christ’s, Emmanuel, Fitzwilliam, Gonville & Caius, Hughes Hall, Jesus, Lucy Cavendish, Magdalene, Murray Edwards, Newnham, Peterhouse, Queens’, Robinson, St Catharine’s, St John’s, Sidney Sussex and Trinity Hall.
How are the HAA and the HAT different?
Firstly, the HAA is used by Cambridge and the HAT by Oxford.
In terms of the actual Admissions Test content, the HAA, you are given two texts and have to analyse and compare the two. In comparison, for the HAT, candidates are given one longer piece of text and are required to answer a question based on it.
What is the HAT Academy
The HAT Academy is a set of pre-recorded lectures and videos which take you through the HAT exam from start to finish. This course serves as a fantastic starting point for your exam, and also provides some more advanced tips.
Where do I find the History recommended reading list?
As with everything else that makes up your Programme, you can find your recommended reading list on the Preparation Portal under the ‘Extras’ tab.
