St Hilda’s College was founded in 1893 and was originally the last women’s college at Oxford. It is located at the far end of Oxford’s historic High Street, beyond Magdalen Bridge. From the college’s beautiful riverside gardens and lawns, one can overlook Oxford’s city center near St Hilda’s Cathedral. St Hilda’s places great emphasis on scholarships and academics, providing students with a relaxed living environment. Its library is one of the most well-stocked among Oxford’s colleges. St. Hilda’s is also home to the Jacqueline du Pre Music Building, one of Oxford’s most vibrant music venues.
