A new home for Access and Admissions
The new premises, at 15 St Giles, offer excellent
facilities for everyone involved in the College’s outreach and admissions
programmes, and all with disabled access. These include a reception area
stocked with useful information, and a meeting room where our staff can meet
with representatives and students from schools in our link regions, to plan and
accommodate events. We have a full programme of school visits and Study Days in
College, as well as regular events in schools across our regions. Find out more
here.
Our expanded team now includes an Access Officer for the Inspire Programme, an Access Officer for our link regions, and a Fellow designated for Access. For admissions, our Admissions Officer is joined by a Fellow designated for Admissions.
Professor William Whyte, Acting President, commented, ‘St John’s has been working for fair and open access to Oxford for many years. With the opening of this new office we not only have a wonderful symbol of that, we will also lead the way in providing guidance to prospective applicants. We look forward to welcoming the students of the future here.’
