One of the best ways to decide if Oxford might be right for you is to come to one of our University Open Days, which this year are taking place on Wednesday 28th and Thursday 29th June 2023. Come and look round our beautiful university city, chat to staff and students and discover for yourself what life here is like. Explore all the information you need to plan your day on our Open Days pages. You will also find advice on travel and accommodation as well as details of the events being run by colleges and departments, all of which will be updated very soon.
Oxford for North East also run a free residential for state school students from the North East of England who have not yet had the opportunity to visit Oxford that coincides with the University's June Open Days. More information about this can be found below.
