Please note:

The colleges of the University of Oxford have different opening hours and charging policies. The information given here is intended for guidance only. Opening hours are subject to functions, examinations, conferences, holidays, etc. Entrance is at the discretion of the Lodge Porter and admission charges are subject to review.

We recommend that you check opening times and admission charges with the place you wish to visit. Groups should book in advance and all visitors to colleges must report to the Lodge on arrival.

The University is a working institution and our colleges, in particular, are places of residence, work and study. You are therefore asked not to enter staircases, college rooms and areas marked as private.

Visiting the Colleges: K-N

Here you will find information on opening times and admission charges, where these apply, for the Colleges of Oxford University, and links to their individual websites.
