Review
Founded in 1879 as Somerville Hall, it was one of the first two women's colleges in Oxford, and its alumnae, such as Margaret Thatcher, Indira Gandhi, Dorothy Hodgkin, Iris Murdoch, Vera Brittain, Cornelia Sorabji, Dorothy L. Sayers and many activists, have played a major role in feminism. Today, around 50 per cent of the students are male.

Review
Biased opinion, but the best of all the colleges. Best four years of my life. Maybe that's sad, but they were really good years! The whole vibe is great, really friendly – both staff and students both – and not nearly as up itself as some other Oxford colleges (I'm looking at you Magdalen). Hell, you can even walk on the grass here, which means one can be out on the grass of the main quad during what we Brits call summer (it gets >20C sometimes!). And that's mighty pleasant.

Neat, the soap tastes pretty good

Review
One of the most famous college of country in which a lot of people come from outside countries for education, very nice place, good infrastructure and awesome architecture, good environment, very nice staff on site and their behavior is too good, easiness of education, hard working staff.

Great college, would definitely recommend applying here. The food is decent too.
