Applications are open for the BME Engineering Residential.

Alongside the University of Cambridge’s Department of Engineering, we will be running a Year 12 Engineering residential for state school students who identify themselves as BME in August 2019. The residential is a fantastic opportunity to experience living and studying at Cambridge.

Magdalene Old Library will be opening its doors to the public over the summer on the First Thursday of each month.

Find out about what it's like to live, study and socialise at Magdalene College.

Magdalene admits roughly 105 undergraduates each year for all courses offered by the University of Cambridge, and about 80 graduate students. Our small annual intake helps to foster a family atmosphere and sense of close knit community.

Magdalene alumni are Members of College for life and are very much part of the College community.

Magdalene Members can be found in every corner of the globe, we run a very active events programme for Members throughout the year. The College offers a number of benefits to its non-resident Members including Dining rights, Guest rooms in College, and punt hire.

Regarded as the jewel in the crown of Magdalene College, the Pepys Library is a rare example of a 17th-century private library. The library houses Samuel Pepys’s original diaries and remains one of the most significant collections of books, manuscripts, documents and prints acquired by any private individual.

The Library is open to members of the public and visiting scholars.
