 Visiting Fellowships

Visiting Fellowships are intended to enable their holders to carry out
study and research in Oxford and to participate in the academic life of the
University. Visiting Fellowships are awarded for one, two or three terms of
an academic year. Applications will be considered from staff of any
university or other institution of higher learning, and from other suitably
qualified persons who wish to carry out scholarly work in Oxford. Visiting
Fellowships are open in all subjects, and to men and women from all
countries. The deadline for applications is in early September each year.
Elections are then made in November for the academic year beginning in the
following October. Details for Visiting Fellowships in the academic year
2014-2015 are available

Visiting Fellowships 2014-2015: Further Particulars

Each year the College offers a number of Visiting Fellowships to people who
intend to engage in study and research in Oxford and are prepared to
participate in the academic life of the College. Visiting Fellows are
expected to be resident in Oxford during the tenure of the Fellowship. A
Visiting Fellow may be elected for a period of one, two, or three terms
within the Oxford academic year.

The dates of term at Oxford for 2014–2015 are:

*Michaelmas Term* (from Sunday, 12 October to Saturday, 6 December, 2014)
*Hilary Term* (from Sunday, 18 January to Saturday, 14 March, 2015)
*Trinity Term* (from Sunday, 26 April to Saturday 20 June, 2015)

Visiting Fellows are expected to be normally resident in Oxford during
term. The period of the Visiting Fellowship extends for an additional two
weeks either side of each term. Accommodation for Fellows who are elected
for the Michaelmas term should be available from 15 September, and for
Visiting Fellows with school-age children it is usually possible to arrange
an earlier arrival date in order to harmonize with school terms. Visiting
Fellows who are elected for more than one term may also be in residence
during the vacation(s) between those terms. The College usually aims to
accommodate nine Visiting Fellows in each term.
Eligibility

Most Visiting Fellows are holders of university posts, but the College
welcomes applications from others, including those in public life (e.g. in
Law, public policy, or the Arts) who wish to carry out scholarly work in
Oxford. Visiting Fellowships are not normally offered to candidates who
before the end of their tenure of the fellowship would have reached the
retirement age in force for academic fellows of the College (67). There is
no limitation upon the field of study. There is no lower age limit, but,
given the number of applications we receive, candidates with recent
doctorates are unlikely to succeed in the competition. It is not the
College’s policy to offer Visiting Fellowships to persons holding posts in
Oxford or who are already resident in or near Oxford.
What the Fellowship Offers

Although Visiting Fellows are not members of the governing body of the
College, they enjoy nearly all the privileges of ordinary Fellows
(including lunches and dinners without charge). The College normally
provides without charge a study in College and fully-furnished residential
accommodation in Oxford. The flats usually provided to Visiting Fellows are
large enough to accommodate a partner. Accommodation for Visiting Fellows
with school-age children can usually be provided.

There is no salary attached to Visiting Fellowships. In exceptional
circumstances the College may offer limited financial help. Any candidates
desiring to take advantage of this provision should indicate this at the
time of application in the 'Financial Subvention' section of the online
form.
Selection Procedures

The College has to choose every year from among a large number of
well-qualified applicants, in widely varied fields of study. In making this
choice, we give weight to intellectual quality, to the interest and
feasibility of the research project, and to the benefit of carrying it out
in Oxford. We therefore ask applicants to include with their application
form a full statement, of not more than a thousand words, of the scholarly
project they would pursue during their tenure of a Visiting Fellowship, and
of the benefit of carrying it out in Oxford.

Applications must be submitted by *6 September 2013*. The online
application system will remind their two referees to submit references, but
the College relies upon applicants to ensure that references are submitted
by *13 September 2013* at the latest, and cannot itself undertake to
approach referees. All correspondence should be addressed to Fellows’
Secretary <fellows.secretary em all-souls.ox.ac.uk>, All Souls College, Oxford
OX1 4AL. Candidates may expect to hear the outcome of their application by
the end of November.
