University of Oxford Open Day 2026
Meet us at the next Open Day
Want to find out more about the Astrophoria Foundation Year in person? The autumn Oxford University Open Day will be on Friday 18th September 2026, and the Astrophoria Foundation Year team will be there to answer your questions. It’s a fantastic opportunity to explore the University and get a feel for the colleges and courses.
Whether you're still deciding or ready to apply, we encourage you to come along and make the most of the day.
What’s on: Departmental talks and events
To help you plan your visit, we’ve compiled a list of all the relevant departmental talks and sessions happening on the day. From subject-specific presentations to Q&A panels and opportunities to meet staff and students, there’s something for everyone. Please note these are the general talks about the subject, and will not specifically cover the Astrophoria Foundation Year experience. Make sure you've found us in the Examination Schools to find out more about our courses.
The Astrophoria Foundation Year team will be in the Open Day Information Centre all day, or you can join us for our talk (time to be confirmed).
