Contextual admissions
Universities and colleges consider more than grades when assessing applications and may make offers based on a range of criteria. Learn more about contextual offers.
We adopt a balanced and holistic approach to admissions. We assess all applicants individually, meaning we can adjust our offers to take account of individual circumstances. You can find out more about the minimum offer level for each course on the course pages. Many offers will be made at this level, but sometimes we make an offer that is more challenging to achieve. This is to better ensure that you will be able to cope with the academic level of the course and really thrive at Cambridge.
