Oxford Colleges and the University of Oxford History
The oldest university in England, Oxford traces origins to before 1167 with early Continental lectures. Relations with France caused foreign students to depart in 1167, leading English students to return and the university to endure. Oxford now has colleges and halls, with women admitted to some lectures since 1884 and full membership in 1920.
