Description
Lady Margaret Hall is one of thirty colleges in the University of Oxford that educate both undergraduate and graduate students. A further seven colleges are for graduates only, and one – All Souls – has only fellows.
Each college has its own history and style. LMH was founded in 1878 to enable women to study at Oxford for the first time. In 1978 it became co-educational. It has always retained the spirit of openness and equality, and the commitment to scholarship, that inspired its foundation.
