The first day of the first term (Michaelmas) for the academic year 2023-24 is Tuesday 3 October 2023.
All new students in the UK should arrive at Churchill between 10.30am and 3pm on the Saturday before the start of term (30 September 2023). Students may usually gain access to their room after 11am on 30 September, unless otherwise instructed. It’s important that all freshers are in residence by 3pm that day.
New overseas students should plan to arrive up to a week earlier, from Saturday 23 September 2023.
Shortly after places are finally confirmed following UCAS Results Day in August, you will be notified of your College room allocation – check out Accommodation | Offer Holders for more details. An arrival form will then be made available here so you can let us know your expected arrival date, though most UK-based students should anticipate arriving on Saturday 30 September, between 10.30am and 3pm. After the arrival form closes in early September, we will email you to provide further details about arrival practicalities.
