Figuring out university applications whilst studying is a pain. It’s unfair that some people have to do this alone, and others have help. That's why we aim to offer concise, reliable information from recent or current students.
Our team is currently spread across Oxford, Cambridge, and London. You can find out more about each person by hovering/tapping on their image.

We are a non-profit, student-led project to make university applications more accessible for everyone. InsideUni was publicly launched in September 2018 for Cambridge, and following success in the first year, launched to Oxford in October 2019.
By crowdsourcing information from recent or current students, then editing the responses to explain any terminology and remove personal information, we are able to provide unique outlooks that are accessible for school students.
We started with interview experiences - as that's the least well documented part of the Oxford/Cambridge interview process. Now, we have over 900 interview experiences from real students available under the 'Interviews' tab at the top of this page.
Next, we moved onto subject guides, and following a big restructuring project, we offer course guides and subject guides, as well as more general resources like our guide for international students. They can all be found under the 'Guides' tab at the top of this page.
At the moment, the team is working hard to upload and create as much content as possible. We're also working on our social media presence - you can find us on Instagram and Facebook.
You can reach out to the team through [email protected] or Facebook.
We look forward to hearing from you!
