Thank you so much for all the videos you make! My son applied to Somerville, got reallocated to Christ Church for interview. Then he got an open offer underwritten by Worcester. He's now in his second year at Jesus. He jokes that "no-one really wanted me" but his admissions process was an object lesson in not getting too attached to any college. Of course he really likes Jesus and has met his tribe. And watching all your videos reassures me that he is in a good place!

This is so detailed and comprehensive, thank you! Would be great if you could make a similar video re postgraduate colleges or at least specify what is the difference between graduate and postgraduate colleges. Many thanks again!

These videos are so helpful. Thank you for making everything so accessible and friendly.

Thanks for the video, an amazing introduction to the colleges! I’m in the midst of applying to a biochemistry based DPhil at Oxford and wondered how colleges come into these kinds of postgraduate studies is there any more sources you could recommend?

Thank you! Colleges are a bit less important for postgrad students, as even more of their learning is concentrated in departments and faculties. For my doctorate, I had little formal tuition in my college (Wadham). But, some colleges have funding allocated for different postgraduate degrees, and some have specialisms that may be attractive. For example, Green Templeton college has a biomedical sciences focus. Please see here for more: www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/graduate/colleges/college-listing

As an American who’s watched a lot of admissions material from OxBridge, I’m always struck by the degree of class insecurity that is assumed to exist among UK applicants. Having attended an Ivy League college here (way back in the 1980s), which always do admit a fair number of kids from expensive US prep schools, and coming from a public high school myself, I felt no such intimidation toward my “posh” classmates. Frankly, it’s sad to me that such an outdated and meaningless class consciousness still exists over there. In the US, 40 years ago, we really did assume that an individual can be whatever they want to be. Although currently, the US left is trying its hardest to shove everyone back into the old intersectional categories, while the right is trying to fascistically dictate who qualifies as a “true” American. Our Founding Fathers were right, that it was the individual who counts, and who is fully capable of determining his/her own character and destiny, if simply allowed to do so. I applaud OxBridge for honoring each student’s individuality, and striving to provide them with the resources to realize their own unique potential.

Thanks for your comment. I agree that class consciousness is sad. I'm not sure it is entirely outdated here, however. Class does still offer a decent prediction for a range social outcomes.

Incredible video. Beautiful presentation. Can international students (south east Asia) apply as mature student?

@JesusCollegeOxford1571

So sorry for the slow reply. Yes, anyone may apply as a mature student.

Although all colleges teach all, is there usually a larger pool of people of one specific topic, do they often band subjects together if they can? thanks.

Some colleges will have larger numbers of students for particular subjects. And, across the University, there are higher numbers of students for more popular subjects than for less popular subjects. But, each subject deals with its admissions process independently of each other. They will nonetheless coordinate with the colleges to work out where there is more or less space available for students.

Its so architecturally beautiful. They are all like little Castles with green courts/parks in the middle. Just out of curiosity how do you get people to interact with others from other Colleges. I suppose there are clubs you can join. How do you stop people cliquing up and forming tribes? Not that I think forming tribes is a bad thing but its good to share different interactions with other tribes lol.

The subjects are all centrally administered by the university. So lectures and labs etc are a mix of all colleges. And, you’re right that clubs cross colleges.

✨Much appreciated for this✨when you say the accommodations are mixed does that mean you have to also live in dorms with a mixed group?
