 The Oxford Programme for Graduate Studies
Created specially for
graduate students, the Graduate Programme focuses specifically on graduate
students, their varying requirements and their particular status in Oxford.
Graduate students may apply to study a
number of "mainstream" Oxford disciplines including English, Law,
Economics, Philosophy, Psychology, and International Relations. Graduate
applicants are required to have completed their degree with a minimum GPA
of 3.5 and to be registered on a recognized graduate program in the US. The
first requirement is essential, the latter requirement may be relaxed in
the exceptional cases and mature graduate applicants of particular
distinction have participated in the past, including university faculty who
have availed of the opportunity to study and research in Oxford on very
specific areas.
Graduate students are members of an
Oxford college, hence entitled to dine in College and participate in the
full range of social and athletic activities within their College.
Graduate students are accorded a higher
status in Oxford than undergraduates. Depending on their subject area most
graduate students are assigned to more senior tutors. Graduate students
have access to more faculty libraries than undergraduate associate
students, often with fewer or no restrictions, and on account of their
status they are entitled to unrestricted access to the Bodleian, Oxford's
main research library.
Graduate students are housed in high
quality single room program housing within a 15-20 minute walk from the
city centre, with other graduates as far as possible. Graduate applicants
seeking a particular type of housing or wishing to come to Oxford with
their family should notify us in advance to explore what special
arrangements can be made.
