Linacre is a graduate college where most of the student community are in their 20s or 30s. Students and Fellows (the academics attached to the College) eat and socialise together and students with families are encouraged to bring their partners and children into the College.

The College draws students from most subject areas and from around 50 different nationalities. Most students are new to Oxford. Linacre came top of a University-wide ‘green college’ survey carried out by the student press in 2007. It is the first Oxbridge College to be carbon-neutral and hold Fairtrade status. The Abraham Building was previously named ‘Green Building of the Year’ and the recently opened Griffiths Building conforms to even higher environmental standards.

The College is situated 50 metres from the Science Area and University Parks, and only a ten-minute walk from all major departments and the centre of Oxford.

As a graduate college, Linacre’s facilities are available to its students throughout the year.

Linacre offers very popular cafeteria-style lunch and dinner from Monday to Friday. Formal dinners are served on Tuesday and Thursday evenings during term-time and are open to students, Fellows and guests.

There are 86 single study bedrooms on the main College site and a further 80 in College-owned houses around the city.

Thirteen double rooms are available, two self-contained flats and three suitable for families.

The Griffiths Building offers 32 en-suite rooms, four of which are doubles.
