Welcome to St Catherine’s College’s Virtual Open Day!
St Catherine’s is a cosmopolitan society, with students drawn from over 50 nations. The College has an overwhelming atmosphere of openness and friendliness in which everyone is quickly made to feel at home.
We asked our students to tell us why they picked St Catherine’s College. Check out the video below to see what they said.

St Catherine’s College is a welcoming and diverse college. Listen to what Irene, our International Students Representative, has to say about the college.
