You are welcome to visit Queen’s
Prospective students and Old Members are always welcome to visit at any time when the College is open, between 9am and 7pm.
We ask Old Members to bring their alumni card if they have one; if not, then you may be asked for proof of identity. The best way for Old Members to arrange a visit is to email the Old Members’ Office.
Members of the public can arrange access by contacting the local Blue Badge Guides. The Chapel holds a number of public services, and during term there are frequent public concerts and recitals. Additionally, the College has a digital guide on Bloomberg Connects, the free arts and culture app.

🏆 National champions. Varsity winners. Sports Team of the Year.
These are impressive achievements, but they're not what Aidan will remember most. As he prepares to graduate from Queen's, the Biology student reflects on captaining Oxford's ice hockey team through an unbeaten season and why the friendships and shared challenges mattered most.
"I think what will stay with me the most is all the people I have met and the relationships made here."

From why pain became the most common rhyme-word to surprising parallels with today's AI language models, discover how form and meaning are more closely entwined than we might think.
