Exeter College

Graduates at Exeter are part of a lively and diverse scholarly community. They constitute more than a third of the student body, and make a valuable contribution to College life, both through a number of regular events designed to stimulate intellectual debate, and through the thriving MCR.

The College is one of the oldest in the University, and located right in the center of Oxford, just across the road from the Bodleian Library and close to the science labs.

The Tutor for Graduates and the College Adviser system, provided by the College and independent of supervision, build links with the College’s full-time academics. Our new accommodation at Exeter House on the Iffley Road provides a warm and welcoming base for graduates from all over the world.
