What Students Say

Our students are asked about their time here and their experiences. Students particularly value the mix of nationalities and cultures; many also state that they enjoy the fact that they spend time with English speaking American students following the Liberal Arts Programme. Oxford provides the perfect setting for study and social life and our teachers take the opportunity to use the city in their classes.
