The Oxbridge System

The Oxbridge System refers to the distinctive approach of selecting and educating students at the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge in the UK. It emphasizes intensive tutorial-style learning, small groups or one-on-one sessions, where students engage deeply with professors through discussions, essays, and research. Admissions often involve rigorous exams and interviews to assess academic potential. This system fosters close academic relationships, critical thinking, and independent inquiry, setting it apart from larger lecture-based universities. While unique, it aims to develop well-rounded individuals prepared for diverse careers through personalized education and academic excellence.
