St Anne’s, well-known for its friendly and supportive academic environment, has over 300 graduates from many countries; this makes its Middle Common Room, to which all graduates belong, one of the largest and most international in the University. The College is adjacent to the University Parks, the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter and the University Science Area, and is a 5-minute walk from the city centre.

St Anne’s is modern, open and committed to opportunity, and keen to reach out to students from around the world, involving all students in College life. St Anne’s offers a number of generous Graduate Scholarships, Teaching Scholarships, as well as Travel and Research Grants. 

The College has a dynamic research community supported by academics across the disciplines. Graduates are central to this lively, intellectually challenging culture. There are numerous events, academic and social, arranged by the MCR, which attract distinguished speakers and alumnae and bring together graduates and Fellows informally. Regular subject family evenings and discussion group meetings give graduates a forum to present their work to Fellows and other members of the College.

The graduate centre on the well-equipped College site provides study facilities, a common room space, and a number of bedrooms. This complements the graduate accommodation centre off-site in the vibrant area of Summertown, to the north of the College. The Tutor for Graduates oversees the smooth running of graduate matters, working closely with the graduate student community and its committee of elected officers.
