I would say that internet / wifi has been generally unreliable in colleges as it tends to go out in a lot of buildings. But aside from this, I absolutely love the resources, teaching and extra curriculars! read more

The University of Oxford overall stands up to its reputation. Access to facilities such as libraries is outstanding. There are a variety of events always happening and many clubs and societies to join. Situated in a beautiful city with plenty of nature areas, cosy pubs, cafes, museums, parks, bars and within an easy commute to London. The Univerity is divided into colleges. My only negative is that some colleges are better than others and some are not situated in the centre of the city. It can be difficult to access events at different colleges so choose your college carefully. read more

I adore going to university of oxford. I’m a graduate student so perhaps it’s a different experience than undergraduates. It can be highly bureaucratic and old-school but the teaching is second to none. The advisors genuinely want you to learn and grow so prepare to be stressed and pushed to great heights! The name/brand carries well so it’s great for networking. However the people you meet internally are extraordinary and so passionate. read more

A beautiful campus and exciting experience overall. Incredible architecture and old traditions really involve you into the Universities history. Your facilities, social life, and housing vary greatly based on their college system. It can be confusing to access resources and know what is available to you. There are clubs and societies galore but many cost a lot of money and funding is limited in many colleges. Social events for grad students again vary. Grad only colleges have more grad only events but many have limited funds. Under and post grad s=colleges often allocate more funds to under grad committee. Events planned are up to your social sec (elect a good one or ideally multiple!!!). The gym facilities are not great. Club sports give you better access. The libraries are gorgeous and a fantastic resource for studying and research. Teaching standards are heavily dependent on the course you are enrolled in and the frequency of classes. read more

Somerville's campus is one of the largest and is home to one of the largest Bodleian libraries in Oxford, which is always cool. The JCR are also very organised and informative so you'll feel very organised at Somerville and things are not very chaotic read more

the SU could focus more on representing the average rather than the exception. Granted, the representation of the exception is key and crucial; nonetheless, it currently appears rather performative or politically motivated instead of an intrinsic commitment to represent the entirety of the student body. read more
