Since its foundation in 1517, Corpus Christi has grown into a vibrant close-knit Oxford college known for academic excellence. Our ancient buildings look out over gardens and meadows and are among the most beautiful in Oxford.
Corpus was founded in 1517 by Richard Fox, Bishop of Winchester and a trusted diplomatic and political advisor to kings Henry VII and Henry VIII. Had Fox pursued his original plan of using the College to train monks, Corpus may have been dissolved in the next generation’s Reformation.
Corpus dates from 1352, making us the 6th oldest college in Cambridge. We were founded by the townspeople (rather than by a wealthy individual patron, like other Oxbridge colleges) and have embraced that democratic spirit ever since.
