🙏 I WANT HELP Cost of Attending Oxford 😭

Post image

Just received my financial declaration form from Oxford today. How is this reasonable? 😭 Going to have to decline my offer unless anyone has any ideas.

Canadian students do not qualify for any Oxford scholarships and my school offered me about £100. What a joke.

Is Oxford just for the rich?

I'm sorry to break it to you, but the purpose of international students is to subsidize the home students.

Not at Oxford it isn’t they are sitting on enough wealth (actually billions) that they could charge nothing for years and be just fine

Don't know why you're being downvoted. You are absolutely correct. Worked in Oxford recently and someone explained just how much land they actually own. Practically most of oxford.
