About All Souls

Discover All Souls

As of February 2025 there are eighty-four Fellows of All Souls, three Honorary Fellows, twenty-one Visiting Fellows and thirty one Emeritus (i.e. retired academic) Fellows, whose continuing research the College actively supports. Of the current Fellows, forty-three are academics entirely funded by All Souls (as Senior Research Fellows, Post-Doctoral Fellows, and Examination Fellows), seventeen are academics with Oxford University positions attached to All Souls, and the rest include academics at other universities, non-academics (e.g. barristers), former Fellows who have attained distinction in public life, and the College Chaplain, Fellow Librarian, and Bursars. 

Through the Examination Fellowships and Post-Doctoral Fellowships, the College is strongly committed to academics at an early stage of their careers. At the same time the College has twenty-one Fellows of the British Academy (and a further sixteen amongst its Emeritus Fellows), and three Fellows of the Royal Society.

The College is a charity registered with the Charity Commission (Registration number 1138057).
