The Oxford History Aptitude Test (HAT) has been discontinued. From 2027 entry, applicants for History, Ancient and Modern History, History and English, and History and Modern Languages no longer need to take a written admissions test. Instead, Oxford assesses candidates through the wider admissions process, including their academic record, written work and interviews. Keystone Tutors represents experienced History tutors who can provide specialist support with Oxford History applications, including super curricular learning, mock interview preparation and the development of the analytical and critical-thinking skills required to succeed in the admissions process.
We currently don't have any profiles available to view for this subject. However, not all our tutors are listed publicly on our website so please do get in touch if you would like to enquire about tutor availability.
"I thought I would just let you know that on Tuesday I received an offer from St Anne’s to read History at Oxford! I wanted to thank you for guiding me through the process of the HAT. Your help to me has been invaluable and I enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you so much."
Successful Oxford HAT student"Without doubt, Tim was instrumental in helping me win a place to read History at Christ Church, Oxford. Tim benefits from an excellent knowledge and deep understanding of both the Oxbridge application process and college tutorial system."

When you request a tutor through Keystone we spend a significant amount of time learning about your circumstances. Priding ourselves on how well we know our tutors’ specialist strengths and university institution experience, we ensure that we put forward the very best tutor for your requirements.
During the first session the tutor starts by assessing where the child is at, their academic ability, their strengths and perceived weaknesses. Tutors will then devise a programme tailored to the specific circumstances of the student and your target course.
After the first lesson, one of our dedicated client managers will contact you to find out how the lesson went. Our client managers are always available at the end of the phone and they are frequently praised for their efficiency, dedication and responsiveness.

How do Super-curricular Activities help applicants to top Universities? Anybody can say that they have a passion for history and many people do. Most of us are interested in some aspect of the past, whether we are keen students of local history or the traditions associated with our favourite sport, or fascinated by a particular figure whom we have encountered in a book or historical drama on TV.
