St Hugh's College

Founded in 1886 by Elizabeth Wordsworth, St Hugh's aim was to further the cause of women's education. In 1986 the college also started admitting male students and now admits undergraduates from a wide variety of schools, backgrounds and countries. The college also operates a generous system of grants to assist undergraduates with the costs of fieldwork and foreign travel connected with their studies.

With its beautiful gardens and partially wooded 14-acre site, St Hugh's is within easy reach of the city centre and University departments.
