UCL Outreach

UCL Horizons

UCL Horizons is an award-winning academic enrichment programme for 13 - 19 year olds. 

It aims to:

• raise academic attainment at GCSE and A level;
• raise higher education and career aspirations from a young age;
• encourage high quality applications to UCL;
• maintain a sustained relationship with participants.

UCL Horizons is part of UCL's Access Agreement.

Please note that our programmes are only open to London non-selective state schools with a high proportion of pupils on free school meals. We specifically target students whose parents have not been to university, and who come from lower-income families.
