Magdalen has some of the most beautiful buildings in Oxford and is set in 100 acres of grounds which include the Deer Park and Addison’s riverside walk. The atmosphere is relaxed, devoid of social pressures, but with unambiguous ambitions towards academic and extra-curricular success.

The College has one of the larger graduate intakes among Oxford’s non-graduate colleges and competition for places is extremely keen.
