Erin Kennedy MBE

Head of our Bursary Programme

Erin has a BA in History and English from the University of Oxford. She has worked extensively with schools, speaking to teachers, students and parents about Oxbridge applications. Erin is passionate about helping students raise their aspirations and realise their potential when applying to competitive UK universities. Erin is also a two-time world champion coxswain with the GB Rowing Team and a current world record holder. She most recently won Gold at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games, making her the first and only coxswain to hold the Paralympic, World and European Championship titles at one time. She was awarded an MBE in the 2022 New Year’s Honours List. She achieved her goal of competing at the Paris 2024 Paralympics and also claimed both the Paralympic Record and World Record after a blisteringly fast heat. On the 1st September, Erin and her crew won Gold, becoming Paralympic Champions once again.

Reviews from past Bursary Students

I want to thank you and your team (especially Joseph) for providing me with the mock interview – it really helped. It made me come at problems and think in a different way, which I think was crucial in my interviews. I did receive an offer from Oxford for Chemistry and I intend to make Oxford my firm choice.

I received an offer from Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, for Medicine! The mock interview I had was invaluable and I am extremely grateful to have received support from Oxford Tutors.

I have officially received an offer from Cambridge. Thank you to all at Oxford tutors for organising and offering the mock interview, it really built my confidence and prepared me for my interview! The mock interview, I believe, accurately reflected the real thing.
