Our priority remains protecting the health and safety of our visitors and all members of the Christ Church community. We continue to have a number of safety measures in place for visiting Christ Church and are pleased to be able to welcome back a small number of groups on a trial basis. If you would like to book more than 11 tickets for a visit please read our 'Groups' section on the website for full details and information on how to submit a booking request.

If you are a prospective student you may want to explore the pages within the Undergraduate Admissions section of this site.

To see how our undergraduates find life at Christ Church, from accommodation, to food, equal opportunities, or financial support, read our student-written Christ Church alternative prospectus.

You can also find information in the University of Oxford’s general undergraduate admissions prospectus,.

At this time, prospective students are kindly asked to contact the Access & Schools Liaison Officer for information regarding visiting Christ Church.

Member of the Church of England who live in the Diocese of Oxford (Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes) are welcome to come to their Cathedral to pray whenever they wish. Parishioners may apply for a free Parishioner Pass which allows them entry through Tom Gate.

The Parishioner Pass lets you enter the Cathedral to pray and look around the building. If you would like to visit the College or the Great Hall you will need to buy a ticket. Adults need a pass each. Under 18s will be admitted if they are accompanying a passholder.

To apply for the pass please visit  Parishioner Pass.

Of course, everyone is welcome to come to the Cathedral for worship and details of our Cathedral Services can be found by clicking here.

At this stage we have had to suspend free entry for Blue and Green Badge guides while we carefully manage the number of people on site. Please note that guiding is also not permitted at present.
