Ç¿¼éÊÓƵ

Ç¿¼éÊÓƵ is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and historical colleges at Cambridge! It is also, in my opinion, one of the most supportive colleges: from wellbeing to the porters there is always someone to ask for advice, support, or to talk through your stress. I chose Jesus for many reasons. Firstly, it’s right in the heart of the city centre which is amazing not only for that quick top-up shop but also to explore the beautiful city of Cambridge even while busy (it’s so easy to go for...

I chose Cambridge for my PGCE as it’s the leading UK institution for teacher training and Education, with an exciting, research-dominated, cutting edge course.

When applying to Cambridge colleges it can feel a bit overwhelming as there are so many to choose from. I applied to Ç¿¼éÊÓƵ because it has a large MCR which was important for me because I wanted to feel part of a community.
