Graduate access
The University and colleges are doing more than ever to increase the number of promising postgraduate students from under-represented groups at Oxford.
In addition to UNIQ+, Academic Futures, Close the Gap and the scholarships described above, we have launched other pioneering initiatives to improve access to graduate study, including:
- initiatives to better contextualise the admissions procedure for graduate applicants, in order to improve the fairness of the assessment and selection process and minimise conscious and unconscious bias;
- application fee waivers for UK Applicants from low-income backgrounds who meet the eligibility criteria; and
- an applicant advice hub that provides advice and tips from our students and staff, such as how to write a personal statement or research proposal.
