Application Deadline for Oxford and Trinity College Cambridge Direct Enrollment Programs

Through agreements made by the College with eight British universities and one Irish university, a select group of Chicago students can study for the autumn term or, in some cases, for an academic year in Great Britain or the Republic of Ireland.

Study Abroad applications for the following two 2026–27 British/Irish direct enrollment programs are due on Friday, January 9, 2026, before 11:59 PM CT:

• St. Catherine’s College Oxford (autumn term only)
• Trinity College Cambridge (academic year only)

Oxford and Trinity College Cambridge applicants complete individual applications. For all other universities, students are asked to rank up to five of the universities according to their preferences. If this initial application is approved, students then complete forms specific to the university to which they are applying. The College forwards this second application to the host university, which reserves the right of final decision.

Important Reminder: Students wishing to apply to British/Irish programs must meet with Chris Fuglestad as a requirement of the application process. Students who do not arrange such a meeting before the close of the application cycle will not be considered.
