As the oldest university in the English- speaking world, it can lay claim to nine centuries of continuous existence. There is no clear date of foundation, but teaching existed in Oxford in some form in the late 11th century. Today there are over 22,600 students at Oxford University, including around 11,603 undergraduates and 10,499 postgraduates. Over 40% of the student body – nearly 9,200 students – are citizens of foreign countries. Students come to Oxford from more than 140 countries and territories. Each student is a member of one of the 38 colleges or 6 permanent private halls. The collegiate system is at the heart of the university’s success, giving students and academics the benefits of belonging to both a large, internationally renowned institution and to a small, interdisciplinary academic community. Colleges and halls select and admit undergraduate students, and select graduate students after they are admitted by the university. They provide accommodation, meals, common rooms, libraries, sports and social activities, and pastoral care for their students; and are responsible for students’ tutorial teaching and welfare. Information on Oxford University is available at: www.ox.ac.uk/about Department for Continuing Education The mission of Oxford University Department for Continuing Education (OUDCE) is to make the scholarship of the university accessible to wider audiences.
