This section is Christ's College, Cambridge information for current applicants. 

Welcome! Thank you for submitting a UCAS application and applying for 2025 or deferred 2026 entry. We are the Christ's Admissions Team, and our names are Kristy, Fran, Hayley and Ellie. We're here to administer (but not to assess!) your application and answer your questions, and we'll support you through this section of the Christ's website from now until decisions-time at the end of January 2025. 

The Cambridge process assesses you carefully, and there are quite a few forms and 'bits' to do after your UCAS application. If you follow the information in this section and work with us stage by stage (we've put the dates next to each stage), we will be able to guide you smoothly.

 

Current points


12 Nov - Stage 4 goes on for quite a long time, so do settle in! Hopefully you've read our Stage 4 advice page, the Stage 4 email we sent on 5 Nov, and you are all reading your emails regularly (and your spam folder, just in case) so that you see any updates etc. This is a very busy period for us so if you can, try to help us to help you by being patient and waiting for information: fewer emails = faster invitations to interview!

Contacting Christ's: We need your help to work efficiently! We request that you start all emails with:
> Your name (exactly as you wrote it on your UCAS form)
> The course you've applied for (incl. 'Biological or Physical' if Nat. Sciences)
> Your UCAS number (10 digits, write as a number without dashes)
> The country you are applying from (e.g. France)

Stage 4: Nov / Selection for interviews & assessments


We will begin inviting applicants to attend remote interviews as soon as possible in the second half of November and will keep you updated in the yellow box at the end of this section. Invitations are sent by email. For students who we decide not to interview, we aim to communicate our decision by the end of November at the latest.

Interviews at Christ's College will take place online on various dates from 2-18 December 2024. Please see the subject information, where more precise interview dates will be posted as they become available for individual subjects. 


If you said on MyCApp that you will be unavailable for interview on a particular date, we will do our best to arrange your interviews avoiding that date. However this cannot be guaranteed due to the difficulty of arranging interviews for all candidates on the small number of dates that may be available for an individual subject.

Please do not ring the Admissions Office to check on the progress of your application. If you have an important and genuine enquiry, please email us and we will do our best to help. Remember though: once we get past the application forms stage, fewer queries = faster invitations to interview!

We have sent invitations to interview in the following subjects
None so far. 


If you are selected for interview in a subject that has a College assessment then this will be organised for you automatically and you will receive a separate email with details. See the College assessments page for more information including confirmation of when the emails with further info have been sent for different subjects.

Stage 5: 2-18 Dec / Online interviews


Stage 5 is for students who have received an invitation for online interviews (and a College assessment, if relevant). It will be expanded gradually and further detail may be added to the pages already available. We recommend that you re-read the information shortly before interviews in case any details have been updated.
