LIVING AT THE CHAPLAINCY

Each academic year, the Catholic Chaplaincy offers rooms for 13 student residents, studying at various levels in many of Oxford’s colleges.

These students form a community at the heart of Chaplaincy life. They share meals at least once a week, take on various responsibilities and service tasks within the house, and make a commitment to support one another in the Catholic faith, be that through shared times of prayer or simple conversation and friendship. 

Rooms are available from 0th Week of Michaelmas through to 9th Week of Trinity, with the option of retaining rooms over Vacations at the usual termly rate.

Application is by written form and interview with the Senior Chaplain and one Assistant Chaplain, and forms are usually released at the start of Hilary term. 

Living at the Oxford University Catholic Chaplaincy is more than just accommodation.

Here some of our students, past and present, reflect on their experiences:
