Course catalogue and selection

Immersion in your chosen field of study is a particular strength of Oxford teaching and learning so we would encourage you to consider applying for a single subject as a visiting student. You may also apply to study two complementary subjects and examples are listed below. 

We offer the following subjects for the Extended Academic and Academic Year and have a preference for applicants to apply for these study durations. We also welcome students for Fall or Spring terms.  

During Fall Term (September + Michaelmas) we offer all of the Humanities subjects as well as Economics, Law and Politics from the Social Sciences and Biochemistry, Biomedical Sciences, Computer Science, Experimental Psychology, Maths and Physics.  

For September applicants can choose between the following subjects and courses: 

Please indicate which subject/course you would like to take on your tutorial preferences form.

During Spring term (Hilary and Trinity terms) we offer all the Humanities subjects and Economics, Law and Politics from the Social Sciences. You can also apply for Computer Science or Maths for Hilary and Trinity terms, however please note preference is given to extended academic year and academic year students. You can also apply for Experimental Psychology to study jointly with another subject.

It is sometimes possible to study other subjects jointly, please email Visiting.Students@st-annes.ox.ac.uk with your request.
