The link to the mini-biography by David Doughan http://www.tolkiensociety.org/tolkien/biography.html
gives an outline of Tolkien's studies and if that does not suffice a courteous e-mail to:

education@tolkiensociety.org

might be your best bet but read through the guidance on the Resources for Students first and bear in mind that these are people who are providing help from the goodness of their hearts, not because they are paid to, and don't expect an instant response.
