Oxford Colleges

The Oxford collegiate system is at the heart of Oxford's reputation as one of the best universities in the world and makes it a very special place to study and live. Every student belongs to a college as well as being a member of their course department and the University. This means that all Oxford students have the benefit of belonging to both a large world-class university and to a small and friendly academic community.

Graduate admissions at Oxford is co-ordinated by academic departments rather than individual colleges. Only after you are made an offer of a place from the department will your application will be considered for a place at one of our Oxford colleges or Private Halls. You can state a college preference on your application form or, if you have no preference, you will be assigned to a college. Details of the colleges that accept students on each course can be found on the college tab of the individual course webpage.
