Changing College

If a student wishes to change College while still on the same degree course they should first discuss this matter with their current College. The process to change colleges is an intra-collegiate matter whereby the releasing College and new College both need to agree with the change. Once this agreement is in place the Proctors should be notified via the releasing College through the College Migration Form.

The above process is not required in the following cases;

  • students who have completed one degree and are starting another at a different College,
  • students changing to another College in order to take up an office/emolument,
  • students changing College before matriculation.

In the latter two cases, the releasing College needs to email aro@admin.ox.ac.uk for Undergraduates and dqt@admin.ox.ac.uk for Postgraduates providing the effective date of change of College and if necessary stating how fee liability is to be arranged.


Please note: The information on this page does not relate to the graduate admissions processes. All enquiries must be sent to the Graduate Admissions and Recruitment Office only who will advise on the policy for applicants and incoming students.
