Every year we invite potential students of all ages and backgrounds to join us at MMLL on our Open Days. They’re the perfect opportunities to learn more about what it's like to study languages, to get a taste of Cambridge life and to ask questions.
Our next Faculty Open Day will take place on Friday 17 March 2023. Further details will be posted on this webpage in due course and booking will open in January 2023.
The next Cambridge University Open Days will take place on Thursday 6 and Friday 7 July 2023. Booking will open in April 2023. Details and the programme can be found on the Cambridge Admissions Office website nearer the time.
These events are designed for students considering an application to Cambridge in September/October 2023 and include admissions talks, departmental tours, sample subject lectures and opportunities to talk to current staff and students.
