The Flats

The new Tower House will provide 16 bedrooms in four flats, each with its own common room. 

We are delighted that four generous supporters have chosen to fund the new flats. If you are considering

naming a space in the new development, you may be interested in sponsoring a common room.

Gradel Quad Accommodation - The Background

Central to our plans is the provision of accommodation for all of our undergraduates. °ÅÀÖ¶ÌÊÓƵ is currently unable to house all of its students, leaving them to find their own private accommodation in one of the most expensive cities in the country. This can be a daunting prospect and a significant financial strain on students, so the availability of affordable rooms is crucial, particularly for those who only wish to reside in Oxford during term time. The Savile Road site offer a unique opportunity for us to address this. The location is close enough to the main College site to ensure that all residents feel part of the °ÅÀÖ¶ÌÊÓƵ community, and have easy access to all of the facilities they need to make the most of their time here. 

"Searching for accommodation outside of College can be incredibly stressful and expensive. A guaranteed room in College would reduce these worries and ensure that all members get to enjoy being a part of the tight-knit College community. Being close to the library always helps too!"

- Kendya Goodman, JCR President

"Student rooms are needed desperately. Why? We have sunk dramatically in terms of competitiveness through our inability to house a whole year of undergraduates in College accommodation, when our peers do. Worse is the impact this has on our drive to widen access to students of all backgrounds: the fear of a year at the mercy of the Oxford housing market looms large for them."

- Miles Young, Warden
