Hey ppl, im applying to go read maths @ oxford. Is keble college any good? Its onli really caught my eye coz of its location and the frisbee team. Whats so good bout it?


its totally amazing. :p:

Location, location location.

Keble attracts the clever people cos they realise they only have to roll out of bed in the morning. + you have guarenteed accomodation for 3/ 4 years :smile: Lots of nice people, lots of societies, good bar, nice accomodation.

hmm... I wonder which college I go to :p: :rolleyes: :rofl:

Accomodation is good :smile: As I said they can fit you in college for 3 years and in college accomodation (housing outside college) for your entire course. A lot of rooms are en-suite and most are fairly spacious. There are some shared bathrooms but not too many. I share with 1 other which is fine and I get a full size fridge in my room (oh and a sofa :p: ). Price isn't too bad - its comparable with elsewhere anyway. :smile: erm... cant think of anything else obvious. Obviously it has phone and internet connections and the like.

As for food I don't know. I'd be surprised if there isnt someone selling it somewhere in Oxford but I admit I don't know for sure.
As far as I know its really difficult to get either kosher or halal food in Oxford because its so provincial. London and a mini fridge are your best bets.

There are loads of halal restaurants, takeaways, grocery stores etc. in East Oxford - down the Cowley and Iffley roads.

So that shouldn't be a problem.

It goes something like that anyway!

I'm not sure about halal but somebody mentioned kosher and I know for a fact there's a place in Oxford - like a society - where you can eat kosher because halls can't afford it. I expect there's something similar for halal food - have you tried googling it yet?
