Permanent Private Hall
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Permanent Private Hall at the University of Oxford is an educational institution within the University — not as a constituent College, but able to present students for Oxford University degrees. "PPHs" are usually, though not necessarily, small foundations of a religious character; thus many offer a limited number of degrees, sometimes only to members of a specific religious order, and generally in Theology and related subjects. The maximum number of undergraduates allowed for each Hall is set by the University. In some cases, a Permanent Private Hall can be granted full Collegiate status; recent examples include Mansfield College (became a full College in 1995) and Harris Manchester College (became a full College in 1996).
There are currently seven Permanent Private Halls:
- Blackfriars (1221 - refounded 1921) Website
- Campion Hall (1896) Website
- Greyfriars (1910) Website
- Regent's Park (1927) Website
- St Benet's Hall (1897) Website
- St Stephen's House (1876) Website
- Wycliffe Hall (1877) Website
