Historically Academic

There is no place in the world with a richer academic history that Oxford. For centuries, Oxford University’s medieval quads and mysterious chapels have been home to serious scholarship. Dozens of Nobel Prize winners, British royals and English Prime Ministers have passed through the university’s doors. An intellectual ambiance is everywhere in Oxford. And it shouldn’t come as a surprise; one in four residents of Oxford are students.

Dozens of colleges make up the University of Oxford, and their venerable stone buildings dot just about every corner of this city. Cobbled lanes, bookshops and tea rooms may lend the city its charm, but the stately academic structures suggest Oxford’s academic greatness. During our English courses in Oxford be ready to steep yourself in time-honored traditions. Dress in all white and play cricket on one of the quads. Punt down the picturesque banks of the River Isis. Spark up a conversation with British students at a local café. It’s all been done before, but that’s what makes Oxford so exceptional.
