Visits and Open Days

Visit us in person, or take a tour online.

Churchill College offers a stunning purpose-built campus, set in 50 acres of grounds. If you can’t visit us in person, you can view a student-guided virtual tour or have questions answered in on one our our webinars.

We sometimes open our grounds to the public, providing a chance to show off our sculpture trail as well as our grounds. Follow us on our social channels to stay up to date, or contact [email protected] if you’d like to organise a group tour.

Informal visits

Prospective postgraduate and undergraduate students are welcome to visit Churchill informally, most days (including weekends), between 09:00 and 17:00.

Note that College is routinely closed to visitors each year from Easter Sunday through to the middle of June, during our “Quiet Period” surrounding exams. There may be ad hoc closures at other times too so, to avoid disappointment, please call our Porters’ Lodge on +44 (0) 1223 336000 before you plan your visit.

The College’s private areas, such as accommodation and the Libraries, are not available to drop-in visitors but you can get a great sense of the College as an environment by looking around its public spaces.

School visits

Our Outreach Officer works in the Admissions Office, heading up the College’s work in outreach and widening participation. They’re regularly out and about visiting schools and colleges, working in person with students and their supporters. They also run online resources like webinars and Q&As, to demystify university admissions and the Cambridge process in particular.

Postgraduate Open Days

We’ll share details of upcoming Open Days here. If you can’t make it, or there isn’t one coming up soon, take our virtual tour instead.

If you are a prospective postgraduate student interested in visiting Churchill College, please email [email protected] as a tour may be able to be arranged.

Postgraduate Open Days

The next Postgraduate Open Days will take place in the Autumn of 2025. Please see the Postgraduate Open Days page on the University website for up-to-date information on bookings for Postgraduate Open Days.
