    Time is running out for final-year undergraduates to have your say in this year's National Student Survey. Please take the time to complete it before you head off for the Easter vacation.

    We’re really keen that your feedback about your total Oxford experience is captured, so the University and colleges can make changes for future students.

    Student Welfare and Support Services reports show demand remained high in 2022-23

    The University of Oxford has today published its annual reports for the Student Welfare and Support Services (SWSS), detailing the use of these services in the academic year 2022/23. SWSS provides specialist and professional welfare services to all students across the collegiate University working closely with college welfare teams.

    It’s February – where are you and what’s going on for you?

    The new year is still in its early stages, which makes me super excited about all that is to come. I have a lot of fresh ideas and plans for philanthropy, so I'm currently concentrating on all the ways I'll be contributing to creating impact in those spaces throughout 2024. My mantra this year is to strengthen my strengths.

    Student blog: Islamic Society reflections on Success

    I have pondered upon the notion of success incessantly, consciously or otherwise, from a young age. Like most of the people who will read this, academic success formed my early notion of success. I remember my father telling me from a young age that ‘nothing worth having in life came easy’ as he simultaneously congratulated my 90% mark on a year 5 test and reminded me that there was 10% still to be found somewhere. That notion of success as the degree of achievement is perhaps an intuitive thing. It’s quite a nice belief to have as well.

    The journey so far

    I am a penultimate year PPE student at University College from East London and the Treasurer of Oxford's African and Caribbean Society (ACS). I am highly honoured to have been recognised as a 2023-24 Future leader, and I hope to continue to harness change in leadership roles.

    My Oxford experience 

    My time at Oxford so far has taught me about the importance of seizing opportunities.
