University open days

Come and see us and find out for yourself what Oxford is really like.

Planning your open day visit

We are not holding any more open days in 2013 but our 2014 open days will be on the following days:

Wednesday, 2 July

Thursday, 3 July

Friday, 19 September

It is easy to feel that there is just too much to do and see at our open days. In our experience people who plan their day in advance often feel they have made the most of their visit and we have tried here to give you the information you require in order to feel able to do this. 

Booking for events

In order to avoid disappointment, please do check whether or not you need to book in advance for events you are interested in. Due to high demand, many colleges and some departments require advance booking for their programmes of events and may only have places for students. Colleges may also offer accommodation and lunch to those who book with them, and this is a great way to experience Oxford life. Parents and students' companions unable to attend events are very welcome to visit the Open Day Information Centre at the Examination Schools in the High Street where there will be information desks all day and talks in the afternoon and which will be open 09.00-17.00.

Drop-in events

There are also many events where booking is not required, and you are welcome just to drop in.
