Going for the first time to university can be a daunting experience. It can be even tougher for students from disadvantaged backgrounds and ethnic minorities who make up a below average number of those admitted. Oxford and Cambridge, the two top universities in the world let alone Britain, have historically struggled to tackle a lack of diversity in their intake. For their first year we are going to follow two students who are off to Cambridge. Before they left home Becky Milligan went to meet them. This is Zareen Roy-Macauley, from Elephant and Castle, South London. She tells Becky that she is the first person from her school to go to Oxbridge "I thought it was completely unattainable".
