Welcome to LMH

LMH is a pioneering Oxford University college. We have been changing lives since 1879, when we became the first to educate women – until then excluded from Oxford. We admitted men in 1979 and, in 2016, became the first Oxbridge college to establish a Foundation Year for under-represented students.
