UK university preparation
Get your students where they want to go.
Melio offers university guidance programs tailored to the needs of schools. We fill the gaps you can’t fill, and prepare students for each step of the UK university admissions journey so that they excel throughout. We’ve created a program that balances self-paced learning and live interactions with expert tutors, which can fit alongside in-house guidance counselling provision.
We’ve been in their shoes
With our founders and most of our head office team having graduated from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, we can use our expert knowledge and experience to help students get to where they want to go!
Melio evolved from our sister brand - Oxford Summer Courses, a successful summer courses business with over 10,000 alumni from 8,000 schools who have gone on to top universities all over the world.
Tailored packages to meet your needs
At Melio, we help students from all around the world to get into their university of choice.
We do this by connecting students with world-class tutors, using a purpose-built learning platform and carefully developed learning content.

Questions you may have
Do I have to choose the same program for all of my students?
No! We know that students have different needs. We recommend that you choose some core elements that all students takes (though within this they can specialise in different subjects). You can then choose additional elements to ‘bolt on’ which might only be suited to some students.
How do I put together the right program?
Our team are experienced in putting together bespoke programs for schools. We’ll talk through your current situation with you, your students’ needs, and your goals for the program. We will then put together a bespoke proposal for you to look at.
How much does it cost?
Please book a meeting with our partnerships team and we’d be happy to talk you through pricing options. We can adapt to all budgets.
Are there different funding options available?
Melio university guidance programs for schools can be internally or externally funded.
Internally funded: schools select students to participate and will fund the programme for selected students.
External funded: students or parents self-select for additional help outside of the school programme and is funded by the parents.
We can also offer tailor-made solutions that are partially internally funded or externally funded for all students.
If you choose to fund externally we will support you to give parents the information they need to make a decision.
What universities do you help students get into?
