Description: 

Students can enroll directly at Oxford University and study in the sciences, social sciences or arts at one of six colleges, each with its own unique character that has been shaped by centuries of history and tradition. Students take part in the tutorial system and focus on one particular subject, for studies that are driven by their intellectual interests, self-motivation, and curiosity.

Requirements: 

Although NU requires a minimum 3.0 GPA, Oxford requires a 3.6 GPA. Students should also have a solid background in the subjects they plan to take.

Students must apply for permission to study abroad through Northwestern by NU's early application deadline of January 7, 2013, and apply directly to Arcadia for acceptance by its deadline.
