Brighton College is celebrating a record-breaking year for Oxbridge admissions, with the Upper Sixth receiving an outstanding 45 offers from the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge – surpassing the College’s highest ever total from last year.
The news follows another exceptional year of academic success. Last summer, Brighton College pupils achieved more A-level A*s than ever before – at ten times the national average. The College has also recently received further prestigious accolades from The Sunday Times, being named Top Co-educational School in the UK 2025 & 2026 and UK Boarding School of the Year 2025 & 2026, in addition to its title of UK School of the Decade.
Offers from Oxford and Cambridge span an impressive breadth of subjects, from Medicine and Modern Languages to Maths, reflecting the College’s deep-rooted culture of intellectual curiosity and academic ambition. Other subjects include Architecture, Engineering, Law and History of Art – a variety of disciplines showing a range of talent and interest.
While Oxford remains the most popular destination for Brighton College Sixth Formers, pupils continue to secure places across almost every Russell Group university, as well as at all the world’s top 30 universities. Destinations include leading institutions in the United States such as Stanford, Columbia, Dartmouth and Princeton.
Head Master Steve Marshall-Taylor said: “We are thrilled to be celebrating outstanding university offers for every one of our Upper Sixth pupils – whether their next step is to Oxford, Cambridge, London, Scotland, Europe, America or Asia. Supported by our Global Futures team, every pupil has a wonderfully exciting future ahead of them, and we are immensely proud of all they have achieved.”
