St Hugh's College (Oxford) Students and Applicants

Hi,

I have applied for Biochemistry at St. Hugh's. I really liked the college and its grounds when I visited. Anyone else for Biochemistry? Does anyone know when interviews are and how they're like? Any example questions would help.

Thanks

Hi there,

I received an invitation today to interview at St Hugh's (I originally applied to Brasenose) and I am having serious concerns about it being relatively far removed from the city centre, libraries, university gym etc.

I was wondering if any current St Hugh's or other Oxford students would be able to tell me what the student life is like for students at St Hughs i.e. if it suffers from being isolated.

If this is the case I was wondering what the odds of me being interviewed at a different college would be considering the fact that I was already pooled once.

Thanks

It really is only far removed in Oxford terms! You can cycle from the centre of Oxford to Hugh's in 10/15min and several bus routes will drop you nearby. There are a couple of other colleges out on that side of town and there will be plenty of people living out in their 2nd year who are as far away from the city centre than Hugh's.

Is there anyone at St Hugh's who can tell me how easy self catering is there? What kitchen availability there is etc, as I'd much rather cook for myself most of the time.

If you're still wondering about this - all of the accommodation has kitchens and it's very easy to cook for yourself. It depends where you are in college, and the kitchen quality does vary, but you'll find that most have a fridge (and occasionally freezer), electric hob, and a small oven. You'll most likely be in Main Building in your first year - they have huge kitchens shared between a whole bunch of rooms, so it can get busy in there but you'll have everything you need. They also have massive kitchen tables which is great if you want to cook and eat as a group.

The meal system works as a pay-as-you-go, so you just top up your bod card and use it as and when; there's no pre-paying required which works out really well if you're going to be cooking most of the time.

Applying for Mathematics at St Hugh's, does anyone know when will they send out interview invitations?

I received an interview invitation for PPE earlier today! So I don't think you have to wait too long before you'll hear
