How we're different

Our mission is to create access to education and provide more opportunities for students to achieve their higher education goals worldwide. We believe that online learning can and should be more than reading pages of text and watching videos of a person who you’ve never met and probably never will. Real people, real teachers and genuine contact can make a good experience great. And we should know, as part of Oxford International, we’ve been helping international students achieve exceptional results for 30 years.

What our students say?

We create our courses with students in mind. We look at helping you to achieve results while also enjoying the experience of learning. As such, we regularly receive great feedback from our students, and we use this to find ways to always do more for you while you’re studying with us. Hear more about what our students have to say…

Students and professionals use OI Digital Institute

The level of teaching, experience and patience from the course providers was absolutely incredible. It was intense, there was a lot to learn in a short space of time, but it was structured to ensure it was taught and consumed at an attainable pace. It was extremely rewarding.

Frequently asked questions

Once you have applied and paid for your course, you’ll receive a welcome letter telling you we have received your application. Closer to your course start date, you’ll receive a welcome pack from us containing details of your course, class times, assessment criteria and clear technical instructions for how to join your class.

The course has three key components: Live lessons with a qualified teacher; an extended study component which is an opportunity to work with your classmates on homework or collaborative tasks in a virtual environment with an additional 6 hours per day of in-person teaching and student support during teaching weekends and you will also need to spend some time studying independently and preparing for your lessons.

We keep our classes small so you get the attention you deserve, so you’ll usually study with a maximum capacity of 14 students in live lessons.

You’ll need to download Zoom and Teams. You will also get access to Oxford International online platforms with additional learning resources.

You’ll have one 90-to-120-minute live lesson per day from Monday to Friday. However, you’ll also be assigned additional tasks and study projects so you will also need to spend about 2 hours on extended study and self-study.

You’ll need to complete a marked assignment every week. There will also be a final assessment at the end of the course.
