Established in 1379, New College is one of the constituent colleges of the University of Oxford. As well as being the first Oxford college for undergraduates and the first to have senior members of the college give tutorials, New College was the first college in Oxford to centre on a main quadrangle, with student rooms, a dining hall, a library, and study rooms within the square ring of buildings and gates. It is one of the most famous and academically successful of the Oxford colleges.
