Oxford alumni include T.S. Eliot, Indira Gandhi, Aldous Huxley, J.R.R. Tolkien, and T.E. Lawrence (“Lawrence of Arabia”).

The University of Toronto offers 3 to 6 week summer courses in Argentina, Australia, Central Europe (Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland), China (Hong Kong and Shanghai), Ecuador, England, France, Germany, Italy, Peru, Southeastern Europe (Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Serbia), Spain and the United Arab Emirates. Courses are for degree credit and students from other North American universities are welcome to participate. Prices vary by site and range from approximately $4200 to $9000 (this include tuition, accommodation, meals, textbooks, and field trips).

Oxford’s remarkable past can be traced through examples of its stunning architecture from the Medieval, Renaissance, Tudor, and Victorian periods. The city’s major attractions are all located downtown, which is surrounded by spectacular gardens, public parks and lush meadows. Only a short distance from the urban core are the banks of the two historic rivers upon which the city is built, the Thames and the Cherwell.
