Getting here from outside Oxford

Here is a map showing the location of the school. It will give you directions on how to get to the school from a location of your choice.

It is also possible to get a taxi from the station. This should take about 20 minutes, and probably cost £6 - £7.

If you don't want to use public transport, we can arrange a transfer for you. You will be collected from the airport and taken to your host family. For more information, refer to info@studyglobal.com

How to get Oxford Brookes University Student Residence?

24-hour bus services from London and its airports run past the Headington Campus every 15 minutes during the day (30 to 60 mins at night). An excellent seven-days-a week bus service, Brookes Bus, running between campuses, city centre and rail station.

If you're planning to join us for a campus tour, and are travelling by car, we encourage you to use the Park and Ride 400 service between the east (Thornhill) and west (Seacourt) which stops on the London Road outside the Headington Campus. These run every 10 minutes during the day.

If you are coming to Oxford by train, catch the Brookes Bus U1, Park and Ride 400, or Oxford Bus Company number 2 from the train station approach (opposite the Said Business School), a minute’s walk from the train station. All three services stop on the London Road, outside our Headington Campus.

The Brookes Bus U1 service links Wheatley and Harcourt Hill with the Headington Campus.

Detailed travel information including bus and train timetables and campus maps is on our transport website.
