All Souls College is holding an Open Evening for Women, to encourage potential female candidates for the Fellowship by Examination to inform themselves about the College and the Fellowship. The Open Evening will take place on Friday 5th March (7th week) from 5-7 in the Old Library. We encourage all female undergraduates and graduate students who might be interested in competing for the Fellowship to attend.
The Fellowship by Examination is awarded on the basis of a written exam at the end of September. It is open to students who have completed an undergraduate degree at Oxford no more than 10 terms prior to the exam; or who are registered for a higher degree at Oxford and have completed an undergraduate degree from any university no more than 10 terms prior to the exam. Candidates may choose to sit papers in History, Law, Classics, Philosophy, Politics, Economics, or English Literature, and there is also a General component. The Fellowship lasts for seven years. Those elected receive a generous stipend, accommodation, and career support. Fellows by Examination may either choose to pursue an academic career, or to contribute actively to academic life while pursuing a non-academic career.

The College is committed to attracting men and women from all backgrounds. We are concerned that relatively few women choose to sit the exam, and actively seek to encourage more to do so. The Open Evening provides an opportunity for women to learn about the Fellowship by Examination, to meet current members of the College, and to ask questions. Please do come along if you are interested.
The College welcomes enquiries throughout the year from anyone who might be interested in sitting the exam. If you are a prospective candidate and would like further information about the College or the exam, please feel free to contact the College Secretary via our website at: http://www.all-souls.ox.ac.uk/
If you would like to be put in touch with a current Fellow by Examination in your subject, please say so. Information is also available on our website at:http://www.all-souls.ox.ac.uk/
All candidates who apply to sit the exam will also be invited to a general meeting, at which the Warden and the Chairman of Examiners will be happy to answer questions about the College and the exam.
