for Undergraduates
There is no typical 'day in the life' of a Cambridge student, as this will differ according to subject and individual circumstances. This page lists some resources created by current students which might give you some insight into what your time at Cambridge could be like.
A big part of day-to-day life in Cambridge is travelling between your college, your classes, and any clubs or hobbies you join. This video features students talking about how they navigate Cambridge.
CambTweet is a project run by the Cambridge Student Union. Each subject has an X (Twitter) account run by student representatives who post about their work and general life at Cambridge. Sometimes they will also answer questions about their course or application process. If you use X, check out #cambtweet to find the CambTweet account for your subject.
We have a whole page of 'week in the life' posts written by current students which describe what it's like to study their subjects for a week in Cambridge. The Cambridge 'week' and the cycle of work related to the week can be very useful to know more about.
There are lots of 'Day in the Life' videos available on the University YouTube channel, and two are featured below. There are plenty of Cambridge student vloggers - you can find similar content by searching for 'day in the life at Cambridge'.
