Give your child a taste of life as a student at the University of Oxford. Your child will dream and reflect on how to play a role in shaping the future.

Studying at the premises of Oxford University means your child will be walking in the footsteps of some of most influential figures in history, including prime ministers, presidents, Nobel prize-winning scientists, authors and . . . those like your child who will lead too.

 

CHILDREN

At Weekend University you will meet people who will make a difference in your life . . .
and in turn you will make a difference in their lives. The future—your future— begins on the campus of Oxford University.

 

Study, dine… and dream amidst the grandeur of the world’s leading University, located in the city of the dreaming spires! Why wait to experience Oxford University until you get admitted as a full-time student?
