At Oxford International College (OIC), we believe that education has the power to transform lives — and the right environment can inspire students to reach their full potential. Our mission is to prepare young people not just for academic success, but to become confident, compassionate, and globally minded leaders.
This year, we are offering exclusive bursary and scholarship places for ambitious students living in Oxfordshire. These places provide access to our One-Year GCSE Programme, designed for students who are ready to fast-track their education and thrive within a truly international community.
A Global Education for Local Talent
We are proud to welcome students from across the world to OIC, creating a vibrant, multicultural community where ideas are exchanged and perspectives are broadened. For local students, this brings a unique opportunity: the chance to study alongside peers from a wide range of backgrounds, cultures, and ambitions, all within the heart of Oxford.
The benefits of a global education go far beyond the classroom. By working alongside like-minded, motivated students, our learners develop the confidence and skills to navigate an increasingly interconnected world. They gain not only academic knowledge but also an understanding of diverse cultures, viewpoints, and opportunities — preparing them for success at top universities and, ultimately, in their chosen careers.
Joining a Community of Ambitious Learners
At OIC, students are surrounded by others who share a passion for learning and a drive to succeed. This collaborative atmosphere fosters both personal growth and academic achievement. Students are encouraged to challenge themselves, set ambitious goals, and support one another along the way.
Within our international network, local students benefit from exposure to global perspectives while still remaining connected to their Oxfordshire roots. We call this being a “global local” student — grounded in their community but inspired by the possibilities of the wider world.
An Opportunity to Fast-Track Your Future
Our One-Year GCSE Programme is an intensive and carefully designed course that enables students to achieve excellent academic results in a shorter time frame. It provides a proven pathway to A-Levels and opens doors to world-class universities, while also helping students develop essential skills for life beyond education.
Through our bursary and scholarship scheme, we aim to make this opportunity accessible to the most talented and ambitious local students. By removing financial barriers, we want to ensure that Oxfordshire’s brightest minds can reach their full potential.
Applications Now Open
We are offering a limited number of fully funded bursaries and partial scholarships for September 2025 entry. These places are reserved for day students living in Oxfordshire and will be awarded based on academic performance and potential.
If you’re an ambitious student ready to embrace new challenges, expand your horizons, and join a community of passionate learners from around the world, we encourage you to apply.
