This is a great collage. Very clean facilities and a fine place to study.
nice
A wonderful place. Everyone is friendly and St Cross has the best food. Students often play the piano and it gives the college a lovely ambience. The common room is homely and well-situated in the college. St Cross has the classic Oxford look and is very central. Be sure to make the most of it!
It was a pleasure to study here for a year. Lovely staff, good quality food and most importantly a thriving postgraduate community. Add its beautiful traditional architecture, luxurious common room and very central location, and you've got Oxford's best postgraduate college without doubt.
In general I'd recommend applying for another (postgrad) college as college life is a huge part of being in Oxford, if you miss it you will struggle!! espically if you are coming here for a DPhil. But if you end up here, it still a decent college. Let's start with the Pros: 1. The college staff are really really really helpful. 2. it is a postgrad college so you will find alot of 'grown ups' and 'mature' student. 3. Activities are organised by (and mostly for) the students so make sure u voice what you want, or even better, join the student representative committee and make it happen 4. There are many student travel grants, hardship funds, and just thing to help you if you encountered any financial problems. 5. Food is delicious. BUT (the cons) 1. the accommodation and special dinners are very limited and very expensive. 2. There is 570 students and 170 fellows in a such small college which means one thing, this is the university's skip with minimum available resources to accommodate all of these people needs. 3. The college goes cold out-of-term. No events, no meals .. nothing! 4. The common room is ill funded and they have to fight for essentials. 5. Most of the college members avoid going to the college and it is really hard to make friends if you live out of the college. (although that is true for most colleges especially college with undergrad constituent) Edit: Since my review, the college made strides to fix many things
