Oxford tutor explains 5 useful tips for improving an application to Universities like Oxford

[Mia-veec]

Hi Matt! I just wanted to say a big thank you for all the videos you have been making regarding admissions into Oxford. They have definitely made the process feel a little less daunting, and have strengthened my belief in my own aspirations. I appreciate your warmth and honesty, as I know many other viewers also do- thanks!

studying in that library is a superpower in it self

[OliverDobbs]

Can’t emphasise enough how helpful your videos were in helping me get into Christ Church for Theology - you’re a shining star poking out of the cloud of a very daunting admissions process.

I just wanted to say that having fun is definitely what is helping me be more individual and myself...instead of watching every way to get the best personal statement, I'm trying to figure out genuinely what value I can add to the course I'm aiming for. In that I'm finding more about myself and the way I learn and what fascinates me. I'm branching out into new areas like languages and ancient history and archaeology and architecture because of the process of applying for oxford.

My true intention behind getting into applying to oxford is quite selfish: I just want to make sure I'm getting the best out of my learning experiences before I go into university. If I don't get in, at least i can take with me these wonderful life skills and critical thinking skills along with me in life. And that's that:)

Thank you very much for your wonderfully positive and sincere advice. I hope I could meet you one day to personally thank you.

This made me feel a whole lot better about applying to Oxford. I’ve been told by teachers it’s frankly not possible for me to go there so this has been a great source of motivation for me. Thank you!

I'm applying at Oxbridge for an M.Phil in Archaeological Science, glad that I saw this video, so insightful. Thank you Matt.

This is the most helpful resource... I just did my LNAT 3 days ago and now I'm editing my personal statement! It's all very nerve-wracking but you explain everything in such a 'human' way and the process really doesn't feel as elusive and mysterious as it did before! Thank you so much :)

what a brilliant video.. thank you so much.. as a parent of a child who is just applying to Oxford this has been really good.. I love the way you speak it so easy going and clear thank you

[RellimBoy]

Hi Matt - these videos have been brilliant! I'm really enjoying them and have found them very interesting. I had a taster tutorial/lecture with you - among some other lecturers - a little over two years ago @ Trinity College. I know several people who also attended and went on to get places at Oxford and their first choice universities the next year - outreach is so important and all you do for access is great, so thanks for doing what you're doing! :)

Hi Matt, thank you so much for these tips! was feeling a little nervous for tomorrow (TSA day!) and a little put down so I really appreciated hearing your story and just knowing that offers aren't the be-all and end-all, so again thank you for these super helpful videos!!

You say the most Wonderful things, Matt.
I love this video. Everything you say is Encouraging,
Kind, and you come from such a Positive place.
Everything you say is true. I am going to watch this
video periodically for Encouragement. It helps me
Feel Better. And I Love Your Library, it is so Beautiful.
Thank you Matt, All the Best to you too,
Jeff

Hi Matt! Thanks to your helpful videos, I feel like I actually have a chance to get into Oxford University. It has always been my dream to go study there and it still is, even if people around me say it's better to stay in Germany. In a few years, when the time comes, I will definetly apply for Oxford University, and hopefully get accepted! Until then, I will practice my fluency in written and spoken English, and try to be a better student. Thank you so much for all your tips!

He fits perfectly in that library.... A perfect aesthetic look

[JJ-gyqk]

When I recommended having a bookcase for a background, I had
not watched this video, which could not have a more fantastic bookcase as a background.

You don't need to know everything, but you do need to be interested in everything. I got in for Classics and we talked about instinct in my interview, specifically spiders spinning webs. They are looking for drive, curiosity and potential, not for you to be a walking encyclopaedia.

[bellalightwood]

I am only doing my National 5’s and am wanting to get into Oxford hopefully, and this was really helpful and so are all of your videos. Thank you very much

[ioanaturcan]

Thank you so much for all the helpful videos you have been posting on the channel!

[zawilwilliam-thephddiaries]

Thank you so much for making this video. Its extremely helpful for those who are planning to apply to Oxford. If I may request please make admissions tips videos for Dphil (PhD) applicants. What need to be prepared ahead prior to applying for the program? What are the tutors look in DPhil candidates? Or these sort of things related to DPhil as it's a bit stressful and highly competitive...
Thank you so much and I am really looking forward to watching the next videos.

[II-gewy]

These videos are so helpful.
It’s going to be a long time before I graduate since I’d only graduate in 2027 from high school.
These tips differentiate my view on how to be accepted into Oxford.
Thank you so much!
