Smile Any information about Queen's?
 
Hi everyone.

There seems to be quite a lack of information about Queen's College, Oxford, even after having a look around using the search function. Does anybody go to/know much about the college? Any info about the college would be great, perhaps things like: accomodation, food, sports, nightlife, general vibes about the college, how attractive it is, formal halls, the people, location, reputation ... anything at all really! Thanks.

In fairness I don't know whether there is anything useful there.

Thanks, I've had a look around but there's not much in there to be honest. Just wanted to see if anybody has any recent experiences/views of the college.

'Fraid I know next to nothing about it. Although my friend is in her first year there now and really likes it, think they do quite a few parties and stuff there, at least in the first few weeks anyway.

I got a call today inviting me for an interview at Queen's (my SIXTH! Was also interviewed by Wadham and St Hilda's) and I'd really like to know what Queen's is like, too...

Aren't Modern Languages interviews over?
I was interviewed at Queen's It's really nice, the people were great and really helpful and the JCR, according to us interviewees and also random people visiting from other colleges, is a pretty good one. Prepare to waste all your spare change on the foosball table.

It's possibly because you want to do Turkish as well as French, as the former is a very small subject...

*German

And yep, but as far as I'm aware, I'm just having a German interview tomorrow, and not one for Turkish...

don't know much about it, but i've heard it's got a nice bar... attempting to sneak into it (apparently) makes for some quality fun.
