About Us
Founded by graduates of the University of Oxford, On Track Admissions aims to make the admissions process easy for both students and their families. Having personal experience with rigorous application processes for highly competitive independent schools and universities, our founders aim to use their expertise to make this arduous process easier for those embarking on their academic journey, whatever their age.
Our expert tutors are carefully selected through a rigorous interview process and are graduates of the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, and leading Russell Group institutions. Each university admissions tutor has studied their subject at degree level, ensuring students are paired with someone who offers genuinely specialist, university-standard academic support.
Our school admissions tutors specialise in preparing students for the 7+, 8+, 11+, 13+ and 16+ entrance examinations for the UK's most competitive independent schools. Combining in-depth knowledge of entrance assessments, interviews and admissions criteria, they deliver personalised guidance designed to maximise each student's chances of success.
We provide comprehensive guidance across all subjects and support every stage of the university application process, including university selection, personal statement development, admissions test preparation, and interview coaching. Our approach is tailored to the individual needs of the student, helping them build confidence, refine their applications, and reach their academic potential.
We prioritise thorough communication with parents throughout the programme and are always available to advise on the most effective support for each student.

What Parents Say
“Lucy helped me through the process of Oxford musicology interviews, a process of which I was ultimately successful. Our sessions focused on how to analyse analytical texts carefully and quickly, and how to discuss different musicological ideas with clarity and confidence. Lucy possesses an exceptional knowledge of music and is able to explain or break down things in a very conversational way so it feels natural. Her teaching style was supportive, insightful, and intellectually challenging in the best way. She is a thoughtful, knowledgeable, and encouraging teacher, and I would strongly recommend her” - Cabot, Oxford University Applicant.
“On Track Admissions have been absolutely brilliant – everything we wanted and needed from a private tuition. Not only was communicator, she completely gets how an 18 year old might feel about A levels, and how to work alongside, motivate, challenge and inspire. Once my son got his A grade and university place confirmed, she did another few sessions with him which have turned on all the lights. Unconditional recommendation from us.” - Sally, Parent of an A-level student.
“Hannah provided intensive preparation for our son's 13+ English exam at a very selective school after relocation meant time was limited. She quickly understood the brief, identified ways to stretch and develop our son and was focused, positive and outcome-focused. She provided clear feedback after each session which summarised work covered, his progress and next steps/homework. She developed excellent rapport with him and he really enjoyed the sessions. Ultimately, our son got into his first-choice school and Hannah was instrumental in achieving this outcome. We couldn't have asked for a better English Tutor. We'd have no hesitation in recommending her..” - Alex Parent of a 13+ student. .
“Tate is an incredible tutor and mentor and I’ll be forever grateful that she came into our lives. Her fast-paced, flexible, firm and down-to-earth style really worked for us. We started working with her about 3 years ago for 11 plus exams, and she got both my boys into City of London School for boys. More than that they absolutely loved learning with her, she built their knowledge and their confidence. We also did a few hours of interview prep and she is an incredible coach, really helping them see things they’ve done as achievements and how to be engaging and interesting in conversations. Would highly recommend Tate and I know we’ll be returning to her many times over the next few years.” - Siobhan, Parent of two 11+ students.
