On 8 June 2018 the College unveiled a portrait of Professor William Abraham, who was a Prize Fellow at All Souls (in Philosophy) from 1959 until returning to Ghana in 1962. The unveiling was attended by John Kufuor, President of Ghana 2001-9 (pictured with Professor Abraham and the Warden).  The portrait is a gift from Mr Kofi Adjepong-Boateng.

It is with great sadness that the College reports the death on 1 June of the Rev. Dr Michael Screech, former Senior Research Fellow and Chaplain of the College.

All Souls holds an exam every autumn for students who have recently graduated from, or are registered for a higher degree at, the University of Oxford. Candidates may choose to sit papers in Classics, Economics, English Literature, History, Law, Philosophy or Politics, and there is also a General component. The Fellowship lasts for seven years. Those elected receive a generous stipend, accommodation and career support, and may either choose to pursue an academic career, or to contribute to wider academic life while pursuing a non-academic career.

The Open Evening is an opportunity for interested women to learn about the Examination Fellowship – to find out more about the exam process, and to meet some members of the College.

All Souls is committed to attracting men and women from all backgrounds, and welcomes enquiries about the Examination Fellowship from anyone.
