Undergraduate Studies Undergraduate Studies Cambridge University undergraduates study for the BA degree, regardless of whether they are reading a science or arts subject. Application for admission to read for the BA degree should normally be made in early October for entry the following October. The College prefers to consider all applicants together in November, but occasionally is able to consider later applicants. All students at St Edmund's have an appointed Tutor who is a Fellow of the College.
Tutors oversee their academic and social wellbeing and are accessible throughout the year.
In addition to formal lectures in the University, small group teaching known as supervisions are arranged by the Senior Tutor and carried out both in the College and in various departments of the University. Prospective applicants should write to the Admissions Tutor enclosing a curriculum vitae and requesting any information required about courses and the appropriate application form. Alternatively, further information may be requested using a web form . Mature students cover the same ground at the same pace as school leavers and are required to provide evidence of ability to study for an honours degree. Note that the College does admit affiliated, but not usually mature, undergraduates wishing to read Medicine and Veterinary Medicine.
