A gift to the Bridging Course helps invest in future Corpuscles with exceptional academic potential. Making your gift now has an even greater impact, as all gifts to the Bridging Course made during our Giving Day will be doubled, thanks to a matched gift.

“The Bridging Course was one of the most socially formative periods of my time as an undergraduate. As a first-generation student, the Bridging Course served as my introduction to a massively competitive world but also taught me to be resilient, learn from others, and run my own race.”

We were the first Cambridge College to introduce the Bridging Course. This included creating ten additional undergraduate places, set aside for students from non-traditional backgrounds. These students are then invited to attend the three-week residential Bridging Course in September, prior to their matriculation in early October. The Corpus Bridging Course enables participants to consolidate core academic and time management skills, necessary to succeed at Cambridge.

Since welcoming its first cohort in 2020, over 70 students have benefitted and settled into College life incredibly well. Our Bridging Course is made possible by the generosity of our donors, as it is fully funded by donations. Thank you so much for your support.
