Cambridge graduation vlog 🎓📸

I’ve formed a lot of core memories in this place. Back in 2022 I had to start studying distantly because my study visa was being delayed. I arrived 3 weeks after the term had started, first time in the UK, without my family thousands of miles away and infinite dreams ✨ and from the first to last day I felt at home.

I’ve never wanted this time to end. Even my student accommodation was located in an 18th century castle, which proves that I’ve been living in a fairy tale. But it’s not over. I trust this is just a beginning. 

Cambridge, I’ll be back a lot 🤍
🌟once a johnian - always a johnian 🌟

THIS GIRL IS A CAMBRIDGE GRAD NOW!! ⭐️
one degree hotter (and faster 👀🏃‍♀️)

These past 3 years have been a marathon with its own highs and lows, all-nighters of studying and partying, discovering new sides of my personality and making lifelong memories 🌟 

taking away a very important quote from graduation yesterday: ‘thank you for everything that happened. YES to everything that’s going to happen’ 🙂‍↕️

We are immensely grateful for your support, and the night is still young!

If you make a gift of any size in the next hour you can help unlock a £10,000 challenge fund, ensuring your donation makes a lasting impact.

Our rowers will also be hard at work down at @ladymargaretbc until midnight doing an ergathon to raise funds for a much-needed redevelopment - follow them to keep an eye on their progress.

Your support makes a real difference to our students but don’t take our word for it, hear directly from Evangeline who is one of the first recipients of our trailblazing Free Places Fund.
