Big City Bright Future
Big City Bright Future is an annual three-week paid work experience programme created especially to help IntoUniversity school leavers who aspire to work within competitive industries.
Your local centre is a space where you can receive help with homework, prepare for exams, gain exclusive opportunities and take part in fun activities with other students.
Your local IntoUniversity centre is a space for you to receive help with homework, prepare for exams and take part in fun, themed activities with other students. We have trained volunteers, laptops and printers and everything we do is free of charge.
If you attend our Academic Support sessions regularly, you may be able to have an IntoUniversity mentor. Our mentors are either students at university, or professionals, who can help you with school work, career choices and social skills.
We may also run programmes with you in your school, helping you to find out more about university life and career opportunities.
To find out more about how you can get involved with IntoUniversity, get in touch with your local centre.
"I didn’t really know a lot of people in professional industries. Things like personal statements and UCAS points were all very alien. Having a centre that was in walking distance of me and my school and was in the local community that I was a part of was so important. A massive part of where I am today is because I said yes to as much as I possibly could, and IntoUniversity was instrumental in that process."
Rosie's story
"If I hadn’t come to the IntoUniversity centre, or applied to their corporate insight programme, or continued paying attention in class, or spent time meeting my mentor, if I hadn’t done any of those things, my trajectory would have been completely different."
