About the event

An Open Day at the University of Oxford is a chance for prospective undergraduate students to explore the colleges, departments, and city that could be their home. You can attend talks, sample lectures, and visit subject areas to learn more about the courses you’re interested in, with academic tutors and current students available to answer questions throughout the day.

Visitors are encouraged to tour a range of colleges to see facilities and student life first-hand, and the Open Day Information Centre on High Street offers advice on admissions, student services, and finance.

Museums, libraries and other University venues also open their doors, making it a full-day experience of both academic and campus life.
