OXFORD Basic English language requirements are: Degree study: Paper-based TOEFL: 550 Computer-based TOEFL: 207 IELTS: 6.0 Postgraduate study: Paper-based TOEFL: 550 to 600 Computer-based TOEFL: 207 to 260 IELTS: 6.0 to 7.0 Flexible start dates are available - January entry for some undergraduate degrees. http://www.britishcouncil.org/eis/profiles/ecs00201/entry.htm CAMBRIDGE All applicants are normally expected to hold or to be about to achieve: a 1st class or 2i honours degree from a UK university an equivalent standard from an overseas university (in the US system a CGPA of at least 3.5 is normally required) a fluent command of the English Language (see below) completion of any current training or education course release from your current institution for the duration of your study (if you are coming to Cambridge as a visitor). Some faculties and departments may require you to take other tests such as the GRE http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/ Don't ask me what the numbers mean. The best 10 years of my life were spent in grade 3.

We call them Universities here. Did you mean as an undergraduate or postgraduate? Oxford and Cambridge Universities are divided into several colleges. Have a look at www.ox.ac.uk and www.cam.ac.uk, and don't listen to the cynics who say 'money'. Plenty of poor students study there too.

The universities of Oxford & Cambridge are each composed of over thirty colleges. Sometimes there are colleges of the same name at both places. Spellings and apostrophes make a difference. Common names are used. Watch out for fictional red herrings!
