‘Courses’ refers to Oxford’s undergraduate degree programmes. Students apply for these courses through UCAS. Some of these courses are in single subjects (eg History or Geography), while others are joint courses combining two or more subjects. Most courses are three or four years long and lead to a BA Honours degree or a Master’s degree
Oxford University is made up of over 30 colleges and halls. It is these colleges that admit undergraduate students to the University. All colleges have signed up to a Common Framework for Admissions which means the same application process for each course at every college. The colleges work together during the admissions process to ensure that the best applicants are successful, regardless of the college that initially considers their application.
Most colleges offer most courses but the exact mix – and the number of places on each course – does vary between colleges.
