Inspire Study Days

Study Days at St John's offer high-achieving Year 12 students at non-selective state schools an opportunity to experience higher level study in their chosen subject. Participants at our Study Days attend talks and workshops led by tutors, find out more about the course at Oxford and what tutors are looking for, and meet current St John's students. We offer both in-person events and virtual events. We often issue some preparatory reading in advance of our Study Days which will then form the basis of the seminars.

Year 12 Study Days Flyer 2024/25

Our Study Days (both in-person and virtual) are often oversubscribed and selection is based on academic merit and contextual factors. Participants should be predicted to achieve at least AAB at A level or AAAAB/AAAAA in Scottish Highers (or equivalent). Where candidates from the Scottish system can offer Advanced Highers we would expect AA (for two subjects) or AAB (for three subjects).

All Study Days are free of charge.

Study Days 2024/25

Our Study Days and Subject Exploration Days will be returning in the new academic year year.

Applications will close at midday 5 weeks prior to each Study Day or Subject Exploration Day. We will notify you of the outcome of your application after the deadline for your chosen Study Day has passed.

In-person Study Days

In-person Study Days include a free lunch at St John’s. Pupils must make their own travel arrangements to and from Oxford. Please note that we are not able to provide parking facilities so pupils are encouraged to travel to Oxford by public transport.

We want to make it as easy as possible for you to attend our event. If you are travelling to one of our Study Days in College we may be able to help with a contribution towards your travel expenses. The support available for travel will depend on the distance travelled, based on the shortest route between your home postcode and St John’s College.

There are a range of digital support items available, and the item(s) you receive will depend on your personal requirements to work effectively from home.
