Lady Margaret Hall

lmh

Lady Margaret Hall (LMH) is a friendly, pioneering college located on the banks of the River Cherwell in north Oxford, adjacent to University Parks. In 1879, LMH became the first Oxford College to educate women. The college was named after Lady Margaret Beaufort, mother of King Henry VII. In 2016, LMH became the first Oxbridge college to establish a Foundation Year for under-represented students. Notable alumni include Benazir Bhutto, Caryl Churchill, Nigella Lawson and Josie Long. Emma Watson is an Associate Fellow, and current Visiting Fellows include Baroness Hale and Gary Linekar.
