Up to four Dartmouth undergraduates per term may attend Keble College during the Fall, Winter, and Spring Terms (up to 12 Dartmouth students can attend Keble per year).

You will be a fully-integrated member of the Oxford community. You will live on campus in College, participate in co-curricular and social activities, and take pre-approved Politics and and Economics courses.

The allowed course load at Keble College is two courses per term, taught using the British tutorial system, which includes one-on-one meetings with the professor and significant independent study time, with occasional class meetings.

Most courses taken through this program can count towards your major and/or minor. Please check the information guide for individual course qualifications in Politics and Economics.

Dartmouth financial aid is transferable to the Dartmouth-Oxford Exchange Program.  

Financial Aid

In order for all qualified Dartmouth undergraduate students to have the opportunity to take part in off-campus programs, the College endeavors to adjust its normal financial aid awards for students already receiving aid. Tuition and expected family contribution for Dartmouth's off-campus programs are the same as for an on-campus term.

Students are responsible for purchasing their own plane tickets and, in many cases, meals. Often, families find that they owe less for billable items for study away terms but will instead use more of their expected family contribution toward indirect costs such as the flight and meals. For help sorting out who pays what and how, contacting the Financial Aid office is often advisable.  

Tuition and Fees

The fees charged by the College for a Dartmouth-sponsored off-campus term of study include regular tuition charges for a term at Dartmouth, service fees, as well as the specific costs established for each off-campus study locale. In many programs, the room and board costs tend to be higher than for a term in Hanover. You can view a budget sheet for each program by clicking on the appropriate term under "Financing Your Program." The cost of transportation to and from the site is the responsibility of the student.
