History at Oxford

I've been offered a place at Oxford for History (which I'm very thankful for) but I initially applied to do History and Politics? What should I do? Should I ask to change if I get in or is that not possible?

Congratulations on your offer!

I’d recommend emailing admissions just to see what’s happened and if there’s any way you can join the course you want, or whether they only have space for you on the history programme.

Congratulations!!
On their open day, they did say that sometimes they offer candidates who perform well in the history component but not so well in the politics component, a place for History instead of HisPol. Maybe that happened to you, although I would expect they would have informed you about that. It's best to ask them.
If my suggestion does turn out to be true, then you might have to make that choice ☹️ but tbh there are so many political modules you can take in straight history, that unless you are dead set on the quantitative aspect of politics, you won't miss out too much.

Out of interest, which college did you get an offer from?

Thanks! I got an offer from Univ, which I’m very happy with. Btw do you go to Harris Westminster? (I go there and and couldn’t help but notice you joined their discussion)

Politics is history now anyway. 😉

Everything is politics in one way or another

Not really.
If I make a cake just for myself, I didn't do so for political ends nor to gain anything from others.
