ranking Oxford University's colleges and bruising some egos at the same time :)

salvete amici!

In this week's video I will be doing a deep dive into the reputations and stereotypes of some of Oxford University's most famous colleges-debunking or further exposing these claims by comparing them to my own *brief* experience of living in Oxford last term...

TIMESTAMPS (took wayyy too long):
6:18 Hertford College
7:34 New College
10:18 Oriel College
10:40 St John's College
12:04 Wadham College
13:13 Christ Church college
16:29 Magdalen College
17:53 Somerville College
18:50 Merton College
21:07 Balliol College
21:56 Mansfield College
23:03 Brasenose College
23:54 University College
REMEMBER: as always these are just MY opinions, so if you are a prospective Oxford student trying to decide what college to apply to, check what college provides your course first, before visiting the individual college websites (and if there are no Covid-restrictions preventing you from doing so, I would highly recommend visiting Oxford on an open day to get a feel for the colleges/city) . ALWAYS email the designated college access officer for any specific college you have questions about (details will be available on the college websites, and don't be afraid to contact them because helping prospective students is literally their job), as they are the most qualified to provide you with accurate and helpful information.
I will also leave some helpful links here:
