There are plenty of incredible articles being published this week - including in The Times and Daily Telegraph - featuring some of our inspiring success stories. Look out in particular for a great interview with the indefatigable Sophie Conquest about how she helped guide her talented mentee Abbie to become the first in her family to go to university, let alone Oxbridge!

GREAT NEWS - at least 50 of our Access Oxbridge students have been invited to interview at Oxford and Cambridge next week 👏👏👏 This is only the beginning of our push to transform access to higher education - it all starts here!

After some technical issues earlier in the week, we have now successfully launched our brand new online matching system!
If you are a mentor, you should have received an email containing your account details and a link to sign in to your Access Oxbridge account. You can then edit your mentor profile, including uploading a profile picture. Our mentees will then be able to view your profile and send you a direct message if they'd like to request your mentorship!
