In-person visits to Corpus Christi
At Corpus Christi, we are very pleased to be able to welcome visitors to the College! Visits to the College are prioritised for state schools within our link region (Manchester, Oldham, Salford, Stockport, Tameside, Trafford), but please do get in touch to check availability. We welcome visits from school students in Years 9 to 13 in groups of up to 25 (including teachers) per day. Our Outreach Team hosts each visit, which usually includes discussions about higher education and Oxford, a tour of the College, an academic taster session, and lunch in our historic dining hall.
School groups also get to quiz our undergraduate Subject Ambassadors about student life here. The Outreach Officer can also help you to combine a visit to Corpus with a tour of another college.

Corpus Christi comes to you!
Each academic year, the Outreach Team aims to visit a variety of schools in the College's link region (Greater Manchester). These events are adapted to the age and audience and cover topics including higher education, studying at Oxford, the application process, student life and student finance. The Outreach Team organises two week-long visits to Manchester:
- January for Year 12 students
- March for Year 10 and 11 students
Bookings for January and March 2025 will be available in the new academic year. If you would like the Outreach Team to visit you outside of these times, please contact us at admissions.office@ccc.ox.ac.uk or call 01865 276693.
Individual tours of Corpus Christi
If you are a prospective applicant who is unable to visit Corpus Christi during an Open Day, we also offer individual college tours (subject to availability) during weekdays. If you would like a tour, please email admissions.office@ccc.ox.ac.uk or call 01865 276693 for further details. Tours usually last around 30 minutes and we kindly ask that you contact the Outreach and Admissions Team with a least one week's notice.
So, what’s it really like to study here?
