Prospective students should select Reuben College as the preferred college choice on the University of Oxford application.
All applications for graduate study are processed initially by the University of Oxford, through the Graduate Admissions Office. Applicants must first have been accepted by a Department or Faculty of the University of Oxford before any college may consider them. If you are offered a place by your relevant faculty or department, you are guaranteed a college place. Your application will be considered first by the preferred college you listed on the University's application form, and may be passed to another college if they cannot admit you. If you would like to ensure that Reuben College considers your application, then please select Reuben as your preferred college.
Selection criteria for Reuben College
- Applications are considered for any of the courses listed on the College listing on the University's Graduate Admissions site.
