Life Changing Oxbridge Mentors

A

How mentors are selected

Mentors are selected based on academic background, subject fit, communication ability, admissions experience and suitability for working with young people.

B

Mentor matching process

  1. We review the student's intended course, admissions tests and interview requirements.
  2. We shortlist mentors with directly relevant subject experience.
  3. We propose the match to the family for confirmation.
  4. The mentor is introduced to the student before sessions begin.
C

Subject expertise

Mentors are chosen for their specialism — from Medicine and Engineering to HSPS, PPE, Land Economy, Physics, Economics and beyond.

D

Admissions test expertise

Mentors have direct experience with the admissions tests relevant to their subject area. Test-specific expertise is a key criterion in matching.

E

Interview preparation expertise

Mock interviews mirror the format and expectations of real Oxbridge interviews and are followed by structured, honest feedback.

F

Mentor vetting and safeguarding

Mentors are subject to appropriate vetting, which may include enhanced DBS checks where applicable. Depending on the role and student context, vetting may include identity checks, academic credential review, references and internal safeguarding expectations.
