Campion Hall, like the other Colleges and Halls, can admit students into the University for almost all B.A. subjects (It is worth noting that the M.A. is automatically conferred on the holder of a B.A. within four years after he has completed the latter, without further study).
Campion Hall was designed expressly to house people studying at the University and is situated right among the University buildings.
Campion Hall thus hopes to serve the Church and humanity by making available to seminarians, priests and members of religious orders the possibility of studying at Oxford University and benefiting from all its educational and cultural facilities, while living in an environment which fosters their religious vocation.
