Encouraging Diverse Applications

There are many groups which historically have been under-represented at Oxford, and Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ is no exception. We are committed to do our very best in changing this.

Working with schools

Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯'s outreach work is forward thinking and innovative.  We have three strands to our outreach work:

  1. Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯'s Step-Up Programme
  2. Oxford for Wales / Oxford Cymru
  3. Partnership with Wood Farm Primary School

The overall purpose of everything that we do is to to ensure that Oxford University is seen as a viable option for young and talented students.

Visit our Working with Schools page to find out more about our outreach activities and staff.

 

Faith and Ethnic Minorities

Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ is home to students from a wide variety of faiths and ethnicities.  We host an annual Faith and Ethnic Minorities Dinner, celebrating the diverse backgrounds of our current and previous students.  

Historically, one of the most under-represented groups at Oxford has been Black British students.  We sponsor the Year 10 creative writing prize for Thinking Black and host their annual awards ceremony in College.
