Welcome to the official Facebook page for everyone interested in applying to study at Gonville and Caius College, University of Cambridge. We'll try to answer any questions posted to this page as soon as possible.

Gonville & Caius is one of the 29 undergraduate Colleges of the University of Cambridge. Commonly referred to as Caius (pronounced 'keys'), the College is one of the oldest and largest of the colleges in Cambridge. Originally founded in 1348 as Gonville Hall, then re-founded in the sixteenth century under its present name, the College is known both for its spirit of academic excellence and ambition and also for its energetic and diverse student body. We are very proud of our outstanding academic record, our strong sense of community and our commitment to the pastoral support of our students. We believe that we combine the best of ancient and modern Cambridge.

Caius is at the very centre of the city — moments away from the market square, a few minutes’ walk from the University Library and ideally placed for all the University faculties. The College has exceptional facilities: beautiful buildings around the Old Courts in the city centre, as well as modern en-suite accommodation set in extensive gardens just over the river at its West Road site. The College is equipped with excellent teaching and research resources, including an outstanding library and full computing facilities. We also offer excellent music and sporting facilities and support a wide range of very successful clubs and societies.

We admit about 155 undergraduates each year and we select our students solely on the basis of academic potential. Potential can be demonstrated in many different ways and each applicant is considered as an individual. Our students come from every type of school and social background and each one has earned his or her place through academic merit alone.

Any prospective applicant is always very welcome to contact or visit us. To find out more about studying and living at Caius, as well as how to apply, please explore our website at www.cai.cam.ac.uk. Our student-produced Alternative Prospectus can be viewed at www.caiusjcr.org.uk/webfm_send/270
