About Ruskin College

Ruskin College was founded in 1899 by two Americans who studied at Oxford University and decided that the same level of education should be available to everyone, not just the elite. The College is named after John Ruskin, a radical pioneer of socialist thought.

Ruskin College is located in Headington, an elegant residential area of Oxford. The college is surrounded by greenery, surrounded by meadows, orchards, and tree-lined avenues where it is pleasant to take walks in a quiet and peaceful environment. The structure is equipped with every comfort that can be useful for the study and individual growth of students who arrive at Ruskin from all over the world. The classrooms are equipped with every technology useful for carrying out the lessons. The university is very active in the practice of sports, theatre, music, and politics.
