The Oxford University Society in Cambridgeshire (OUSC) sends you congratulations on gaining a place at Oxford! 

We are a group of people who live in Cambridgeshire and who are alumni of Oxford. We would like to invite you to an informal get together offering the opportunity to meet not only some others from this area who will be going up to Oxford for the first time in October, but also some current undergraduates (and a couple of us who graduated some time ago!)

We hope that this will give you a chance to make a few contacts before your first term starts, and also get some answers to a few of the many questions that are probably buzzing around in your head at the moment. One of our undergraduate members said ‘I’d like to share all that I wish that I’d known a year ago’.

Come and join us at The Granta, (by the river at the end of Queen’s Road) on Thursday 22 September, from 7pm onwards.  Grab yourself a drink, and come and join our group for a friendly chat (look for the dark blue!).

Please contact us now to register and let us know that you are coming;  if you can't make the event we'd still love to make contact so email us and let us know. See you in September!
