Queens' is a really open College, and it's completely unpretentious. No-one knows or cares what school you went to, or whether you have three or thirteen A Levels. Jonathan

The sole condition for admission to Queens’ is academic potential. Queens’ seeks applicants from every sector of education. We encourage applicants from schools with no prior history of application to the College. The College guarantees that no candidate selected for a place at Queens' will be denied that opportunity because of disability or any social or other consideration.

Queens' is a large and exquisitely beautiful College situated in the heart of the city. It has a mix of old and new buildings, ranging from the fifteenth-century Old Court to the twentieth-century Cripps Court.

Undergraduates are guaranteed accommodation on the main College site for three years and all rooms are connected to the internet. The focus of social activity in the College is the JCR, which ensures that the student voice is heard in matters affecting the College. Queens’ provides surpurb facilities for theatre, music and dance. Squash courts, a gym, a cinema and sports hall are all situated within the College. The sports ground and boathouse are nearby.

The utmost care is taken in selecting candidates for admission. Each applicant is interviewed sympathetically by highly experienced Fellows who seek to promote opportunities for candidates to present their strengths.

There's a firm expectation at Queens' that every student will work hard to fulfil his or her academic potential. Everyone understands that achieving a place here confers that responsibility. Queens' offers a supportive, nurturing environment wherein to flourish and be happy.

Potential applicants are welcome to contact the Admissions Office directly, to visit the College website and to attend one of the open days held each year. The College is also happy to arrange visits by Fellows and students to schools.
