Student-Led Tours
Our student will be running tours throughout the day, offering you the chance to explore key areas of the College, including the New Library, Dining Hall, and student accommodation. These tours are a great way to get a feel for the spaces where our students live and work, and to see what day-to-day life at Magdalene is really like.
Throughout your visit, our students will share their experiences and answer any questions you might have, whether about academic life, social activities, or settling into Cambridge. They come from a wide range of subject areas, so there will be someone to speak to whatever your interests.
We encourage you to chat with them, ask questions, and find out what makes Magdalene special to those who know it best.

Admissions Talks and Q&A Sessions
We’ll be running Admissions Talks and Q&A sessions (times to be confirmed), giving you the chance to hear directly from our Admissions Team and gain practical advice on how to make a strong application to Cambridge. These sessions are a great opportunity to learn more about what we look for in applicants, how the admissions process works, and what makes Magdalene unique.
Parents and supporters are very welcome to attend and are encouraged to join the conversation. Whether you have specific questions or are just curious to learn more, our team will be on hand to help.
We’re looking forward to meeting you. Come and explore Magdalene for yourself, we think you’ll feel right at home!

Drop in and speak with our Directors of Studies. This is a great chance to ask questions about your chosen subject, learn more about what studying at Cambridge involves, and get practical advice on the application process.
