Getting into Oxbridge for Postgraduate Study

Does anyone know how common it is for international students to stay in Oxbridge accommodations during breaks?

Just to clarify the post from 123abroad now, accommodation rules vary by college, however, I think as a rule, while you can stay between the first (Michaelmas) and second (Hilary/Lent) terms, and between the second and third (Trinity/Easter) terms no problem, staying over the summer if your degree lasts over a year requires you to ask, as the rooms get rented out to other people over the summer. So "the full year" in the message above means the full academic year, not the full calendar year. You probably can ask to stay over the summer, but you will have to apply and pay extra. As I say, it depends on the college, so check the college graduate handbook/guide for details.
