Resources for students

In addition, a suite of resources for students new to Oxford is available on the Oxford Transition Support page of the University's student website.

The page provides a central hub for students by bringing together support resources from across the collegiate University, together with video feedback from current and previous students. To help students recognise resources that are part of the package, a visual identity has been created so that central, departmental and college materials can be ‘badged’ accordingly.

If you are a member of staff, and have a resource you would like included on this student page, please contact academicadmin.comms@admin.ox.ac.uk.
