The College System Oxford University is made up of 39 colleges and six permanent private halls. Each college is responsible for providing teaching and accommodation.
Most colleges have their own sports grounds and music and drama groups.
Not all subjects are offered by each college, but you can find out which colleges offer which subjects in the Undergraduate Prospectus and on this website. The close college environment means that tutors and college staff get to know students individually, which results in a friendly and supportive atmosphere. Teaching methods Much of the teaching for the degree is done through tutorials . You will be given the opportunity to discuss the piece of work you have prepared for the tutorial and resolve any difficulties you might have encountered. This personal approach to teaching provides students with a great deal of flexibility and support and also provides you with continuous academic feedback.
