Undergraduate admissions and outreach

Admissions news
Oxford has appointed global assessment leader Pearson VUE to manage the delivery of the University's undergraduate admissions tests. Tests form one part of Oxford's admissions process and are used alongside a range of information to help assess the academic potential of applicants for many of our courses. The tests will be online and delivered at Pearson VUE test centres. In 2024 there will continue to be no charge for candidates to register for Oxford's own tests. Go to the section on admissions tests in our Guide for applicants for further information on arrangements for the individual tests.
