Pre-Med Study Abroad Programs in England

Reach Cambridge was a completely new experience for me, especially as someone who had never attended a summer camp abroad before. It was truly unforgettable — not only did it enrich me academically, but it also strengthened my confidence in pursuing a medical pathway. Beyond the classroom, I had the chance to connect with people from all over the world and experience their cultures, making it even more meaningful. I really enjoyed the activities arranged for us, where we were encouraged to interact with new people, and make new friends. I would say it truly gave me a college experience I hadn't had up to this point in my educational career.

Deciding to attend the Bristol Summer School in Medieval Studies was one of the happiest decisions I've made. I really enjoyed my time there: the university building and dormitory were really comfortable, the academic program was so rich that I couldn't imagine one richer, and the professors and staff were so kind and helpful. During the summer school, we were given the opportunity to visit numerous medieval towns, castles, cathedrals and manuscripts. At the end of this summer school, we, the students, can navigate the world of medieval studies: we learned how to approach a manuscript, how to analyse churches and literary works. In addition to the specific medieval teachings, the staff had always organised different and funny activities to do in the extra time, to meet and get to know the other students there in Bristol.

I wish I could go back to Bristol again. To sit in the Royal Fort Gardens with an iced latte in hand, feeling the breeze against my skin. To wander down to the harbourside and let the summer vibes soak into my bones. To walk alone up Brandon Hill and take in the city from Cabot Tower, the kind of view that makes you breathe a little deeper and think a little clearer. And to relive those late Friday nights on King Street, where the laughter, the music, and the warmth of the crowd made me feel alive in a way I can’t quite put into words. Bristol wasn’t just a place I visited, it became a feeling I carry with me.

I had such a great time at Lite Regal Education Summer School 2025 The Intensive English course really helped my English improve a lot in such a short time. I also met so many new friends from different countries everyone was super kind and friendly.

This program was exactly what I hoped for and then some! For any students interested in healthcare, this is the perfect combination of community engagement and healthcare policy. The courses are very relevant to today's healthcare debates, and the professors are very advanced in their fields. They want to learn from students as much as they want to teach. The program also has a community volunteer placement, which is a great way to work with local initiatives, learn more about a public healthcare system, and engage with locals. The conclusion of the program is spent in Jamaica for ten days, where students are able to shadow in local healthcare clinics, attend lectures at the local university, and explore sights across the island. This was my favorite part of the program and I miss it every day!

My daughter, Calista (16) from Cyprus, attended Lite Regal’s 3-week Medical School Preparation program in Cambridge, and it was an unforgettable experience! The 2-week Medical Taster Course covered anatomy, clinical skills, and medical ethics, with expert tutors who made learning engaging. The highlight was the 1-week hospital shadowing in a London hospital, where she observed real doctors and gained hands-on insight into the medical field. She stayed in Hughes Hall College, Cambridge, in a comfortable en-suite room, which made her experience even more enjoyable. Outside of lessons, she loved exploring Cambridge, punting on the River Cam, attending social events, and going on weekend trips. The program was well-organized, inspiring, and gave her a real taste of medical school life. Highly recommended for any aspiring doctor! Thank you, Lite Regal, for this life-changing opportunity. :))) Would recommend this school !! Good Vibes all around from staff and mentors who where friendly.

Reach Cambridge was by far the most wonderful, interesting and inspiring experience I have ever done: it all started as an opportunity to learn about new things in the science field, but in the end it also gave me a taste of what studying at Cambridge University looks like and allowed me to get to know new incredible people from all over the world. I attended the STEM course, and as someone who wanted to clear their mind about college decisions by getting a taste of each of the major scientific disciplines, this was undoubtedly the best choice I could make. What I liked the most about this course is that it allowed me to change classes and teachers every few days, which gave me the opportunity of knowing new incredible people even from other colleges while also forging strong friendships with my actual STEM classmates. I also found experiencing very different teaching and learning styles extremely useful for my future. But what I enjoyed most other than the STEM course were the activities the amazing Reach Cambridge staff organised: from postcard making to t-shirt panting, from punting on the river to a super fun graduation party at the end of the program, there was absolutely no time to get bored! Weekends were also incredibly busy and fun: we got to visit Hampton Court Palace and to attend an original Shakespeare play in the actual Globe theatre in London! So overall, I can say I would definitely go back to Reach for a second summer experience, and I would absolutely recommend other people my age to try it!

This program was amazing. I went alone and met so many friends from other schools around the country. I got to explore London, and all of Europe during the best semester of my life. I would recommend this program to anyone who asked I wish I could go back.

Reach Cambridge was a great experience for me because I could meet many people from all around the world and make lots of new friends. Living in one of the colleges of Cambridge and taking academically orientated classes was also good to experience and prepare for university life.

Law, It was one of the best experiences I have ever had in my life and there is no doubt that it is a really important memory for me. I had the chance to learn about law, a law completely different compared to my country’s. I had the chance to actually visit multiple courts and observe cases. I had the chance to practice law myself, either in the classroom or the court. I met so many people, from all over the world, who I will never ever forget. Even if I met them 2 weeks ago or maybe less, they really feel like a family to me. If I had the chance I would do all over again!

The experience in the Reach Cambridge program was one that will stay with me. The lessons allowed me to look at psychology as a whole, get to know new aspects of it and solidify what the best choices for me are going into university. Above all, I got the chance to meet and make connections with amazing people from all around the world. I never felt alone since I found my community but I also created a new one here with the other students and the staff. Reach Cambridge you’re going to be missed but you gave me confidence for what I’m doing next.

I had a really amazing experience on the Reach Cambridge Program and met so many awesome people. I did the medicine and life sciences program which was really interesting, well-paced and really interactive. I also did the pre-hospital and emergency medicine taster course which was really informative and fun. We also got lots of time to explore the city of Cambridge and meet people in other classes. Everyone on the program has been really welcoming, the staff are lovely and I've made some really amazing friends here. I would really recommend this program to any young person looking for an amazing experience.

This was one of the best experiences of my life. I made amazing and intense bonds and connections with people that will last. The education has been fantastic and I’ve learned such a high caliber of knowledge in my field.

Reach Cambridge has allowed me to step outside my comfort zone, meet amazing new people from all over the world and take part in a course that I am passionate about. I had an amazing experience at Reach.

This program with Reach Cambridge is one of the best summer experiences I've had my whole life! Everyone is incredibly friendly and the environment is inspiring. There is no other place on Earth like Cambridge.

My Reach Cambridge experience was one of the most fun I’ve ever had in two weeks! It was the perfect mix of free time and engaging activities for me. Also, I got to meet really diverse, amazing people who I can’t wait to keep in contact with.

This was honestly an experience I will never forget. On the day I arrived I was a bit shy but after talking with people I realized we were all in the same boat. I have learnt a lot about peoples different cultures and their livelihoods. I have made lifelong friends from all over the world! And finally I have met supervisors and teachers who made me feel safe and comfortable.

Reach Cambridge was without a doubt the best experience of my life. I enjoyed the freedom it provided, while being gently introduced to what university life is like. I made some lifelong friends from all over the world, and got to have many interesting debates and discussions in my classes that helped me open my mind, change my viewpoint and sometimes challenge my way of thinking. I would wholeheartedly recommend this course to everyone and anyone, and the weather was beautiful as well!

For me, Reach Cambridge has perfectly balanced a taste of university life and its freedoms with the structure and safety provided by the lovely Reach staff. I now feel more confident in my chosen field, in my future but also in myself. I have made friendships from all around the world that I'm sure will last a lifetime.
