Undergraduate degrees at Oxford are more specialised than those at most American universities and allow you to study your chosen course in depth. You apply for one course only, so making the right choice is very important. There are no major and minor subjects at Oxford, so you can’t mix and match different courses. Although you follow one course throughout your studies there are lots of options for specialising within your subject areas, but there is little opportunity to study electives or options from other subjects.
A course is usually only one academic subject (like Mathematics or History), but there are some courses which combine two or more subjects (like Physics and Philosophy). These joint courses are usually not major/minor combinations – you would need to demonstrate your aptitude for, and academic interest in, each subject. Most undergraduate courses are three years long. Some science courses enable students to do a research-focussed fourth year to gain a master’s degree. Most language courses take four years, including up to one year in a country where that language is spoken.

Oxford University Colleges
Oxford University is made up of colleges spread across the city of Oxford. These buildings provide accommodation, a dining hall, bar, common room, library and gardens. Every undergraduate lives in college accommodation in their first and usually last year. It is also here that college tutors will oversee your studies and normally arrange your tutorial teaching. The relatively small number of students at each college ensures a ready-made community which nurtures all undergraduates’ academic development and welfare.
