Christ Church in Oxford, Oxfordshire, will hold undergraduate open days on 1 and 2 July 2026 to help prospective students and their families learn about the application process and university life. These events provide a chance for visitors to see the college in person and get direct guidance on how to apply and join Christ Church.
Visitors can take part in campus tours and attend talks on college life, the admissions process (including demonstration interviews), finance and welfare. The Christ Church Admissions and Access team and current student ambassadors will be on hand to answer questions and share their own experiences of living and studying at the college.
Prospective students can also meet academic tutors and admissions staff, including Alexander Kuo, Tutor for Admissions at Christ Church (and an Associate Professor in the Department of Politics and International Relations), to talk about different subjects. These sessions coincide with the wider University of Oxford Open Days, which allow visitors to explore other colleges and University departments across the city.
To help with the cost of visiting, Christ Church can cover reasonable public-transport travel expenses within the UK for eligible students, provided an agreement is made in advance. Because parking in the city centre is very limited, visitors are strongly advised to use Park and Ride services such as Pear Tree, Redbridge, Thornhill or Oxford Parkway.
The college notes that the travel-support form for the September Open Day is now closed; prospective applicants should consult Christ Church’s Open Days ‘Travel support’ information and the college’s Fees and Financial Support pages for details of eligibility and other financial-assistance schemes designed to ensure travel costs do not prevent high-potential students from visiting.
