Year 12 Accelerate 2025 Programme
Accelerate is a year-long academic and pastoral support programme for Year 12 students who intend to study science, technology, engineering, mathematics, or medicine at university.
Through a range of online academic tutorials, university information sessions, and additional activities hosted by Imperial College London, Accelerate aims to support you with your A-level studies and ensure that you are as prepared as possible for the next step in your educational journey.
Through this programme you will:
Develop the skills you need to achieve a top grade in A-level Physics or Chemistry;
Build your confidence when applying to research-intensive universities like Imperial College London, which require an A/A* in your chosen subject;
Gain an insight into undergraduate level study, and what it is like to be a student at Imperial College London.
What to expect on the programme
For 2025 entry, we will be running two strands: a Physics strand and a Chemistry strand.
Both strands will consist predominantly of fortnightly after-school online tutorials on either Tuesdays or Thursdays, with one in-person event held at Imperial’s South Kensington Campus on a Saturday in March 2025.
You may only apply for one strand – Physics or Chemistry.
Applications for Accelerate are now open. The deadline for applications is Thursday 9 January. We expect to release decisions in mid-February 2025.
Applications are made through Aspire (our online application system). You must create an account with Aspire before you can fill out your application.
