For a more detailed description of the programme please download the Policy and Procedure document available here. Application Applications will be accepted at any point during the year and will not be restricted to University term time.  The applicant will need to complete an application form which is available for download from this website.  In addition to this application form we will also require an up-to-date curriculum vitae and a letter signed by the visitor’s Head of Department (or equivalent) confirming that the visitor is a full-time member of the academic staff of that institution and that the proposed visit has his/her support. Application does not guarantee acceptance, and we can only offer places within the Faculty to visitors under the sponsorship of a Faculty member. Approved applicants will be informed in writing of their visiting status, along with confirmation of the dates of the visit and information with regard to practical elements of being a visitor in Oxford. The completed application form and accompanying documents must be sent to: Emma Gascoigne Faculty of Law St Cross Building St Cross Road Oxford OX1 3UL Email: emma.gascoigne@law.ox.ac.uk Costs Since 1 January 2008 all successful applicants have been required to pay a minimum charge of £500 +VAT. Where the visit is for longer than one term, a charge of £500+VAT per term applies. For the purpose of this scheme, a term will equate to four months. In the case of hardship, a visitor can ask that the fee be waived. Current Visitors Here we list senior academic visitors with legal interests who are temporarily in Oxford, pursuing their own research, at the invitation of the Faculty or of colleges or centres.
