Cambridge and UCL are both prestigious universities in the UK, and it is very difficult to apply, and many students do not know about them. So today, I would like to share with you what are the differences between the learning experience of Chinese students in Cambridge and UCL

High-intensity activity.

Cambridge is characterized by "high academic intensity, a large number of lectures, and a wealth of social activities", which requires students to learn to balance. From the moment you enroll, you will receive an orientation mail. invitations, as well as the warm acceptance of seniors. After the official admission, there are also a large number of academic activities, such as academic lectures on different topics, graduate student sharing sessions, etc. Different clubs also hold different activities, which is very rich and lively.

Although UCL has a rich campus life, it is really not as much as Cambridge.

Pay attention to the sense of ceremony.

Cambridge, like Oxford, has a sense of ritual in its daily study life. For example, a bachelor's gown must be worn at various formal dinners (UCL only wears a bachelor's gown at graduation ceremonies). There are several processes for the dinner, and there is also a sequence of serving, as well as a signing ceremony. Every month, the canteen will also launch themed meals, which really soothe the stomachs of students!

Everyone must also feel the uniqueness of Cambridge, with busy academics, high-density lectures, and rich activities, to create a comfortable and comfortable learning environment for students as much as possible.
