University entrants

We are delighted by the numbers of Perse students who go on to study Geography at university. In recent years approximately one-third of students who have studied Geography at A level have taken the subject at degree level. We also have a strong history of Oxbridge entrance for Geography, with three students gaining places in 2011.

We aim to support and extend all pupils who wish to apply for Geography at university through a range of specially arranged activities including mock interviews, seminars, lectures and study-day visits.
