  • LOL it reminds me of the mage college in winterhold

  • If you need to ask what are the requirements, you're not fit for Oxford.

    One is meant to be resourceful to enter one of the top universities in the world.

  • Nelson Mandela! Woah, I'm going

  • IM COMING!!! <3

  • i didnt know that oxford is the oldest uni. inspiring...

  • I wanna go study in Oxford University!

  • I want to further my study here in this very famous school.

  • I love to study here, What will be the requirement?

  • I hope to study here

  • w0w

  • This video gave me a glimpse of what my dreamed university really looks like. Indeed, it's a great university. This university will really bring out the best in each of their students. :)

  • I can not imagine how big it is!

  • this university is great! it's like studying in the medieval times with the latest technology available. . :)

  • nice place to study,seems like very relaxing.. wonderful people..2nd of top 10 universities in the world!!!

  • It's a good thing that they have included short online courses in their curriculum. That way, one can study anytime, anywhere around the globe.

  • fuck it , cant get there , then im gonna teach myself

  • if you got Straight A/A* in your A Levels, but B/C in your GCSE's would you be able to get into places like Cambridge and Oxford

  • @panteraboosh I'm only 14, so I don't know entirely what I'm taliing about, however I have done my homework on these universities, as I myself hope to one day attend Oxford or Cambridge, I have read that a minimum requirement is 3 A's AS level, and 3 A's A2, however I have also heard that a string of A/A* GCSE is required, I think it mostly depends on what you want to study, and the mark you got in that particular subject. (I'll continue on another comment, as I've run out of space).

  • @panteraboosh largely depends which subjects you did

  • @panteraboosh

    ofc, as long as you have shown you have gone beyond the course and have done relevant work experience.

  • @panteraboosh Not too sure about Cambridge, but at Oxford they pretty much give you an offer based only on how well you do in the entrance exam and the interviews. If you're good enough for those, then they're not too fussed what grades you got at GCSE's. Go for it.

  • @panteraboosh Yes, almost all offers from universities are based on your A level grades. But you need to attend interviews too; there was one case where a girl got four A*s in her A levels but didn't get an offer from Oxford because she performed badly in the interview.

  • @panteraboosh Possibly but not certainly.

  • OMG!!

    i wanna be there :"(

  • This is mostly shot in Exeter College, Christ Church appears only in 1 or two shots.

    Fuck off

  • hope i could study there.

  • hope i could study there.

  • I was at St. Catherine's college 1983-1986. It is an experience I will never forget.

  • Could anyone tell me what opportunities there are for post-graduate studies in medicine at Oxford? Thanks =)

  • background music is great, what is it called? anyone knows?

  • is it really hard to go in this university?

  • aha I am so not clever enough! ahaha

  • I love Oxford. It's a wonderful place with wonderful universities :) . I'd really like to study at Oxford University, but first of all I am a German (maybe it is even more difficult to get in then) and my grades are good, but noch perfect. :/

  • I'm in year 10....and i must say, i'm going to try hard and get into this beautiful school :O

  • Oxford,I hope,I'm coming :)

  • thats christ church

  • I'm 11 years old and would love to persue my dream of becoming an astrophysicist in Oxford.

  • awesome i wanna go

  • Hogwarts?!

  • i was in summer school last year at Oxford university ,believe me the BEST PLACE ON EARTH !

    i LOVE it ...specially the nature of the area it is like where they shoot all of the fairy tales movie and Harry potter ..

    i wish i could go there again ,i miss that place sooooo much

  • one of my drems ...

    stdy in oxford ..

  • i am willing to give up 30 years of my life if i can study in oxford university

  • @Dam1000Dam1000

    i don't think so,not anyone need to study at Oxford

  • @Dam1000Dam1000 It's about what you do with your life, not which college you study in

  • @Dam1000Dam1000 wow, that's crazy talk

  • @Dam1000Dam1000 Then you honestly are crazy.

  • @Dam1000Dam1000 A little bit extreme for bragging rights?

  • @Dam1000Dam1000 no university is worth that

  • @Dam1000Dam1000 you only need to give up 2 years of your live to get decent grades to get into oxford =)

  • @Dam1000Dam1000 Go to St.Bonaventure University. They have a program where they go over to oxford university.

  • I don't understand why this video exists. Does anyone actually need convincing to study at Oxford? Or do they just like to brag?

  • @MrBWB Surely someone who is taking their A-levels and wants to know a little about the University of Oxford would find this video quite informative?

    Plus I fail to see how anyone in it is 'bragging' as you so quaintly put it.

  • @MrBWB I fail to see how any of them are 'bragging'.

  • @MrBWB Who'se bragging?

  • @MrBWB I think they want you to have an insight ... but ya, it looks kinda like theyr bragging.

  • @MrBWB They want to show you how great Oxford is I think :b. And the universites in Oxford are brilliant so why shouldn't they brag a little bit ? :D

  • @MrBWB Well, it would be idiotic to go to a university when you haven't had a look. After all your going to spend a long time living there...

  • i live in oxford

  • i would like to go to this University

  • the best university ever

  • @ottomanslap97 you need all As

  • Hogwarts from harry potter is oxford they just used special effects to make it look like it was next to the ocean

  • i want to study there^^

  • i believe i'll study in there

  • i believe i will study in there

  • i believe i'll study in there

  • im only in year 8 (13 years old 2morrow) but i already have my furture planned :) gcse: maths, english, triple science, history, geography and either art or drama. then imma go to suffolk one. then oxford or cambridge. imma be a csi or marince biologist :) :) if all eles fails a auther or a rapper x

  • @tifftigershark slow down bud, the future will come soon enough. have a good time while you still can.

  • i want to study there

  • @tifftigershark don't be so sure mate, there's a lot of places that your studies will take you and they won't be what you expected, i have so many hobbies and interests it's impossible to choose so my best advice is leave your options open :)

  • @tifftigershark

    You're statements is acerb in tone. You're portraying authors to be a "fail of a career", yet literature is the only reason how we can keep fundamental concepts of the real, natural world.

  • @tifftigershark Ooh, rapper; bad move. Go for the Oxford or Cambridge route for sure ;)

  • @tifftigershark Yep....looks like you've got it all planned out

  • @tifftigershark good luck , as for me a dentist

  • @tifftigershark Yes. 'a auther' is an interesting profession, I used to be 'a auther' but I gave it up. Very demanding... physically.

  • The relativ atom mass is to handel with (g/mol=x*10^-36) for the exactly molecularmass and so the exactly ratio.

    Example: The molecular mass divide by the number of atoms and then to ratiomasses you want.

    Peace must be!

  • dream

  • @SimonOxfPhysics I was wondering how much would be the tuition for foreigners be?

  • @SimonOxfPhys I was wondering how much it would be the tuition fee for foreigners be?

  • I dreamed of going to oxford my whole life, and now i have been accepted, problem is I live in California and have never left my entire life. I'm starting to get scared which is very unlike me.

  • I would kill to study there)

  • @MrKaryerist I think they might not accept murders.

  • This may seem like an odd question but does Oxford University still offer the same studies in evil that Megatron, Skeletor, and Stewie Griffin received. I want to be master of pure evil and acquire an English accent to add to it.

  • @ottomanslap97 any applicant needs A*, A*, A as GCE , as a GCSE you need a B in English; and other 4 GCSE's

  • it would be an absolute dream to be waking up, in your dorm knowing your at Oxford University, i know we ALL want to go ther. I wish you guys the best of luck in life x

  • if only we could all go to such universities

  • I have 5 years left for O and A levels and i am planning to get scholarship so that i could go to oxford. i am a topper in my class and i will top in O and A levels both

  • I have 5 years left for O and A levels and i am planning to get scholarship so that i could go to oxford. i am a topper in my class and i will top in O and A levels both

  • I have 5 years left for O and A levels and i am planning to get scholarship so that i could go to oxford. i am a topper in my class and i will top in O and A levels both

  • @ottomanslap97 depends what you're doing, I'm doing a-levels next year : Maths, Further Maths and psychology. to get entered to do a maths degree you need A* at Maths, A* at one of the other subjects you choose; and another A for the other 3rd A-level :P so yeh, it's quite hard; they are really strict in entrances and requirements. I'm willing to go there too and will do anything it will cost me.

  • WE will help you to study!

  • what i find funny is that i've been seriously considering either astrophysics or archeology o-0 weird

  • are you guys all genisuses? O.o

  • Here are my grades:

    GCSE Maths: C

    GCSE English: C

    GCSE Chemisty: Fail

    GCSE Drama: Fail

    Where do I apply for Oxford?

  • Didtent Rowan Atkinson and J.J.R Tolkins go there?

  • Didtent Rowan atkinson and J.J.R Tolkins go there?

  • 2012 

  • Wow, people really do have a lot of questions about Oxford! I'm a student currently studying physics there so please feel free to ask if you have any questions, academic or otherwise!

  • @SimonOxfPhys What campus in oxford do u attend?

  • @SimonOxfPhys how smart do you have to be to get in there?

  • @SimonOxfPhys Didtent. Rowan atkinson ( Mr.Bean ) and J.J.R Tolkins ( The one who made The Hobbit and Lord of the rings ) go there?

  • @SimonOxfPhys im torn between cambridge and oxford! what at the parties like in oxford?

  • @Da1uLyK Well, in Oxford you'll have college bops (dressing up, cheesy music) every other week or so and there's a big club night (very varied) basically every night. Oxford is not short of clubs - something that Cambridge struggles on a bit! You'll also be able to go to at least one ball a term if you choose to, which are really fantastic nights. Good Oxford parties involve a lot of free stuff, typically amazing surroundings and (mostly) good music.

  • @Da1uLyK With grammar like that, you wont be going to either.

  • @Da1uLyK Non-existent. 

  • @Da1uLyK recent newspaper reports showed Cambridge students drinking their own piss - so maybe Oxford is the way to go, although these days it's no better than UCL - huh!

  • @Da1uLyK wow really?

  • @SimonOxfPhys I was wondering, do you know how difficult it is to get into the anthropology department?

  • @HeartShapeGlasses007 As easy/difficult as for any other subject, I guess! I study Arch and Anth and it's the best degree, ever. End of. But then again I'm a nerd. :) Basically if you love the subject, get decent grades and be calm and well prepared in the interview process, you'll be fine.

  • @SimonOxfPhys I'm thinking of joining, What kind of grades are most important to get in? I want to do English.

  • @SimonOxfPhys @SimonOxfPhys I'm thinking of joining, What kind of grades are most important to get in? I want to do English.

  • @SimonOxfPhys UAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I WANNA GO SOOOOOOO BAD! I have SO MANY QUESTIONS!! Can I message you??!!! I can't fit them all into one comment box!!!!!!!! Here are a few-> 1) How hard would It be for an American student to get a scholarship? 2) What kind of classes do you have to take your first year there if you're going to be a biology major? 3) Are there any dance or art classes there? 4) Do they take kindly to gay-rights activists? (I come from a homophobic country, pardom me)

  • TOWN NOT GOWN! BRAP BRAP

  • I'm not even top in my school which is not the top sch in S'pore which is miles away from Oxford!!! I have 4 more years... this starts to feel impossible sometimes!

  • @shahid1vio1love  balance the tempo of your efforts and try your best...

  • oxford !! wit me I am coming 2015

  • @nawraa97bh you are planning this at the age of 13!!! i admire your determination, im atttempting to get there as well!

  • @nawraa97bh Haha, I hope I see u there!! I'll be a first year then if I do get in. :P

  • oxford !! wit me I am coming 2015 <3 <3

  • Oxford University is the oldest university in the English speaking world! World leaders such as Bill Clinton (and his daughter Chelsea,) Benazir Bhutto & Robert Mugabe have all studied here!!

  • @scarletjamable robert mugabe is definitely not a world leader, he is just like hitler. should be stoned to death

  • I bet you I could get into Oxford, I just can't afford it :(

  • @shebzydon my university gives full scholarships..i just have to get it >.<

  • Oh, reading all the comments I must say that I find myself among the lucky ones who visited this divine place!!!!! People - go there as soon as you can!!!!!! Even if it's expensive!!!!!! Check out my video about Oxford.

  • pa gde da nadjem helikopter, HD kameru i ovoliko ljudi u viser-u! za ovakve snimke je potrebna oprema, a ne samo dobra volja...

  • Wow oxford is a nice city and one day I`ll spend my vocation there ! But I`ve heard there is a huge crime rate in Oxford is that true or just nonsense ? I hope I`ll get an answer ! regards :-)

  • @ChrisU354

    I live in Oxford and no there isn't allot of crime but there are crimes as you would get any where else. I think as a tourist you would appreciate Oxford more, as it's rich in history and so much to see. We have multi national students from all over the world and tourists who come in massive groups, so you wouldn't feel unsafe at all. The locals are pretty friendly too.

  • @ChrisU354 Thats nonsense

  • Cambridge is better for maths and is where I'll be heading this year!

  • i really really want to go there!!!! I dream about going there every night

  • @thedarkfalcon123 If u want smething in Life, go and get it. Dnt wish for it work for it my friend ;)

  • I want to go here so badly. It's practiclly all I think about.

  • There seems to be a LOT of Christ Church in this video; shame they didn't show some of the other and especially some of the newer colleges.

  • @iRaikun Christ Church is the typical Oxford College. I went there with a few of my friends from College, to look at the university. Those who want to go, i reccomend you try - it is a beautiful place and the environment is so friendly. For those who believe Oxford students are all stuck up and snobby, you are wrong.

  • @iRaikun Oxford is an EXTREMELY christian university thats why you saw so many churches and christian items in the video even the motto of the university states that "The Lord is my light"

  • @iRaikun That's just because Christ Church is quite their flagship college. Note that Christ Church alone produced 13 British Prime Ministers while the whole of the University of Cambridge produced 15 (though I do realise that this isn't really a factor in evaluating a college/university).

  • Awughgh this video is so awfully 90s. I want to experience the campus, not the outdated synth music.

  • I studed ant harvard

  • @jefdemais123 You can see that :P

  • Thatcher has nothing on Tutu! :D

  • See linguatera at youtube

    

  • Do you have to know what 5 X 5 = ?

  • @Introspective91 nah but you need to now the value pf pi for upto 14 digits after decimal xDD. j/k

  • look at nature and ask yourself? Who is the Creator? Who is the true god?

  • Bit of a premature ending wasn't it?

  • Bit of premature ending wasn't it?

  • I got an offer from them this week :D

  • 21 people were deferred or out right rejected for Oxford 

  • @zeke4life1 or probably fans or students of Cambridge

  • Long live Cambridge.

  • kinda have to be a machine when it comes to studying to graduate in that place.. nerdfactory ftw, but I'm jealous I'll never set a foot in there!

  • 2:08, Solve the hardest problem in the planet is human problem :)

  • @Genoga12

    Only if you think humans are a problem...

  • I guess for Oxford the phrase "Old is Gold" fits perfectly.. The world's oldest university and still one of the most reputable.

  • @PBzwei oldest english speaking university

  • occult 101 down the hall to the cellar'

  • wauw!, if u are a student on this school, you´re life will start at the age of 34 XD

  • I have an interview there next week :)

  • Looks idyllic from the outside, I know, but it's ruddy hard work. If you want to come here then be prepared to spend A LOT of time with your head in a book and not so much time enjoying the 'ancient and beautiful city.' I'm sure it's worth it in the end but as a third year 'stress' is the main item on the agenda. It's a wonderful place, but not for everyone

  • sounds like a dream

    bloody stupid you got to be smart

  • its like fuckin hogwarts innit?

  • 2:57

    Nice to see they are accommodating for Islamic students

  • I wanted to go here to study medicine, until I completely destroyed my chances by getting BCDE and the E was in Chemistry. :(

    It's a lovely university though!

  • i want to go here one day

  • God so many aspiring students here wanting to go to this University. This is my absolute dream, I'm going to fight hard for this. I wish us all success.
