My life on campus
Oxford campus
Just a stone’s throw from the world’s oldest and most prestigious Anglo-Saxon university, the Oxford campus is located in the heart of the city and enjoys a unique historical setting, only 80 km from London and its financial center.
AN IDEALLY LOCATED CAMPUS
Cross the Channel to discover the Oxford campus! In 2014, EM Normandie opened its campus within the British Study Centre. Since 2017, the Oxford campus has been located on the Activate Learning site, close to the city center. This campus is becoming an exceptional destination for EM Normandie students who wish to study entirely in English and acquire an excellent international culture.
To make your move to Oxford easier, we have created a comprehensive support package that will give you all the information you need about visas, health, accommodation, the cost of living, and lots of other valuable advice!
Getting to campus
The EM Normandie campus is easily accessible by bike from different parts of the city. It is one of the preferred means of transport. As Oxford city center is not very large, you can also walk depending on where you live. The Key Bus Card issued by the Oxford Bus Company allows you to save money on regular journeys with a subscription. Buses run every 10 minutes in the morning and every 20 minutes on average during the day.
Please note that traffic in Oxford can be very heavy during rush hour. For more information, visit this website.
Access the campus
Access to the campus is granted via your student card, which will be issued to you at the beginning of the academic year. This lanyard will allow you to enter the campus, access classrooms, study rooms, and the Chill Room (on the first and second floors), as well as the various spaces and services available on site (cafeteria, library, smoking areas, prayer room, etc.). You must wear your lanyard in a visible manner at all times while on site.
