University of Oxford
As well as a world-class education, Oxford University offers an extraordinary range of opportunities which mean student life here can be whatever you want it to be. There is no typical student at Oxford and no single Oxford experience. Their staff and students come from all kinds of backgrounds and this helps make Oxford one of the most exciting learning environments anywhere.
Learning at Oxford is stimulating, demanding and potentially life-changing. Students will be part of a large world-famous university in a dynamic and thriving city, but also a warm and welcoming community which really cares about their wellbeing. Whilst studying is a major part of life at Oxford, there is still plenty of time to have a laugh and develop both old and new interests with over 400 clubs and societies for students to get involved in.
