Key information, and your contract

The College Handbook is updated every summer in an agreed process involving current students, and all students then become bound by the updated version. We draw students’ attention to any important changes to the handbook each year.  College rent and food charges are revised each year in line with inflationary rises.

Sample College Contract available here. You will be issued with signing copies of the College and University Contracts later in Summer 2023.

Undergraduate Fees and Funding information for 2023 may be found here: https://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/fees-and-funding.

The University Student Handbook 2022-23 may be found here: https://www.ox.ac.uk/students/academic/student-handbook (the 2023-24 version will appear here in due course).

Please note: by accepting your Offer, you agree to the University collecting and using your individual personal data, including, in exceptional circumstances, sensitive personal data. This will be done in accordance with the principles set out here.

Harris Manchester’s data protection policy can be found here, and information about our access guide can be found here.

Students form a very important part of our work with applicants, and they engage with applicants at outreach days and by providing material such as their Alternative Prospectus. Our staff also provide information and guidance to applicants at outreach events and open days. We greatly value their help in making applicants feel welcome and giving them a sense of Oxford; and we work hard to ensure our representatives are well-informed and give applicants accurate information. However, when you are deciding whether to accept an offer from us, you should please only rely on the material which is supplied to you by the University or by college, such as our college website, our student handbook, and responses to you from our college office. If you have any questions, the college will always be pleased to help you with the information you need to make an informed choice of where to study.
