The University of Oxford will be hosting its next Open Day on Friday 15 September 2023.

We hope you can join us at Catz during this event, to see our college, chat to our students, and to equip yourself with the information that you need to make an informed decision about your future!

 

We’re open all day, with our friendly student ambassadors giving tours of the College from 9am-6pm.

Not only will you get to find out more about the College, this is also a great opportunity to speak with current students here at Catz about what their experience is like.

No questions are off-limits – ask us anything!

 

Please note that, due to essential maintenance works, we are unable to provide tours of the Dining Hall, Library or Junior Common Room areas at this time.

  1. Plan, plan, plan – With over 50 departments and nearly 40 colleges to visit right across the City, there’s plenty to keep you busy. That’s why it’s important that you have a plan of attack.
  2. Bring a notepad and pen – It can be really helpful to jot down some of your initial thoughts and reflections on each department or college that you visit, so that they don’t all end up blurring into one in your head.
  3. Ask questions – Remember that the Open Days are all about YOU gathering the information that you need. Remember that the Open Days are all about YOU gathering the information that you need. We’re not going to judge or assess you in any way, all that we care about is making sure that you have the information you need to make an informed choice.
  4. Follow up – You may well come away from our Open Days with more questions than when you first came, and that’s okay. Take the time to reflect on what you’ve learnt, remember that it’s okay to change your mind, and make sure that you get in touch to ask any questions that you still have.
