Accommodation for our adult students
College houses
We aim to create an international environment for our adult students, based on the university model. Our residences provide a safe living space where students are encouraged to take responsibility for themselves and to respect the rights of others. Support is always available — from the Accommodation and Welfare Officer during office hours and via our 24-hour hotline throughout the day and night. There are four residences for students aged 18+ at St Clare’s. The facilities at each are similar but not identical.

Homestay
Some of our students choose to live in homestay with a local host. This choice gives you the opportunity to discover a different side of living in Oxford; you eat meals with your host each day and are able to learn more about life in the UK.
Homestay includes:
- a single room with shared bathroom or
- a superior room with an ensuite bathroom
- storage space and study space in the room
- breakfast and evening meal seven days a week if you are in the house
- the room will be cleaned, sheets and towels changed, and if you like your clothes can be washed once a week
- you will be able to use the shared areas of the house, shared bathroom facilities and be given a key to the front door
- your host will help you settle into life in this country and into the life of a home in Britain
