The University of Oxford

The University of Oxford is a research university based in the city of Oxford in the UK and is the oldest university in the English-speaking world with no formal foundation date having survived. It is also the second oldest surviving university in the world. It saw rapid expansion from the 1160s after the king Henry II banned English students from travelling to Paris to study while in 1209, disgruntled students left the university to form Cambridge.The university is a member of the League of European Research Universities and the Russell Group of research-led British universities as well as the International Alliance of Research Universities.

Some 140 countries have attendees at Oxford and some 60% of the total student body is from outside the UK. There are various programs available for international students to help with orientation and integrating with life in Oxford as well as to help with legal matters such as immigration and visas. They can also help with practical matters such as dealing with finances and accessing health care with the National Health Service (NHS). Student life is filled with many traditions as befits a university of Oxford's age. One of these are the balls, held by the colleges with a formal dress code as well as smaller events regularly during the year. The Oxford University Student Union or OUSU, represents students and is their voice in debate about the university as well as organising student life organisations. There are a large number of sports available outside the classroom and many of these are of a high standard. The Boat Race is a famous example of a rowing race with nearby Cambridge University that is watched by up to 10 million TV viewers each year. There are also student newspapers and a radio station as well as performing arts groups. There are also student societies open to students who aren't studying the subject to learn something new and different.

The main campus of the university is the city of Oxford itself and buildings are spread around the area. The Science Area, for example, is where most of the science departments are located and comes to closest to a modern campus. Other notable buildings include Christ Church Cathedral that is both the city's cathedral and the college chapel as well as the Sheldonian Theatre, used for music and concerts as well as lectures and ceremonies. There is also the University Park, a 70-acre area in the northeast of Oxford that is filled with sports fields and gardens for students to enjoy. The university also owns a number of libraries, museums and galleries open to the public including the Ashmolean Museum, the oldest museum in the UK founded in 1683. Accommodation is provided for all undergraduate students in their first year at the university and for at least one other year. There are a number of different options for students around the city including university owned housing and private housing, all of which can be accessed through the Graduate Accommodation Office.
