Open Days

Trinity College Open Day

2026

Trinity College is delighted to be participating in the University Open Days on Wednesday 1 July, Thursday 2 July and Friday 18 September.

The College will be open on each of these days from 10am until 4pm.

Join us for any of the following:

10am-4pm
College tours led by our undergraduate students, excluding during our subject talks between 1:20-2:10pm. No booking required.

12:30-1pm
Admissions and Life at Trinity College talk by the Senior Tutor and current students. No booking required.

1:30pm-2:30pm
30-minute subject talks with Trinity College tutors, starting at 1:30pm and repeated at 2:00pm. No booking required. These sessions are for prospective students rather than teachers, parents or carers.

Subject talks are offered across Trinity College’s undergraduate subjects: Biochemistry, Biomedical Sciences, Chemistry, Classics, Computer Science, Economics & Management, Engineering Science, English, History, Law, Materials Science, Mathematics, Medicine, Modern Languages, Philosophy, Politics & Economics, and Theology/Philosophy & Theology.

Please note that no Physics tutors will be available at Trinity College on Thursday 2 July. Prospective Physics students visiting on this date are encouraged to visit the Department of Physics, where they will be able to access subject-specific information, speak with academic staff and find out more about studying Physics at Oxford.

Similarly, we will not be hosting Music tutor sessions at the College on the three Open Day dates. Prospective Music students are encouraged instead to visit the Faculty of Music, where they can attend the Meet the Tutor session at 2:00pm, led by Trinity’s Music Tutor, Hugh Collins Rice.

Prospective Music students are also very welcome to visit the Faculty of Music at other points during the Open Days to find out more about studying Music at Oxford, explore the facilities and learn more about the wider academic community.

Guests attending subject talks at Trinity should come to the Café in the Levine Building, our Open Day Hub, 10 minutes before the start of the talk, at either 1:20pm or 1:50pm. They will be taken to the talk from there. Owing to demand and limited space, talks are open to students only, rather than parents, carers and teachers.

This is the only time in my life where I won the lottery without buying a ticket as this is a great community where I can just be myself. So, if learning and discovery and developing new knowledge fascinate you, then there’s nowhere better for you than Oxford.  The opportunities are boundless.

Professor Peter McCulloch (Medicine)

I don't think it would be an exaggeration to say that I'm the happiest here that I've ever been.

Laura (Maths, second year)

It's small but not suffocating; it's large but not dwarfing. I love the size, I love the open fields, I love the community feel of the whole college grounds.

Frankie (PPE, second year)

Trinity College is a very warm and welcoming place. It is full of people who are really interested in what they do and those people come from a great variety of backgrounds!

Professor Katherine Ibbett (French)
