MAs of the College (with effect from the beginning of the academic year after proceeding to the degree of MA) and PhDs and other higher degree graduates are entitled to dine with the Fellows up to ten times per academic year. Those dining assemble in the Senior Combination Room (entrance from Second Court) where wine is available from 7.20pm. Gowns are worn except when dinner is served in the Senior Combination Room (which is normal outside the dates of Full Term). After dinner coffee can be taken in the Fellows' Parlour, or wine and coffee will be served in the Senior Combination Room when there is sufficient demand. The first dinner of each academic term is at the College's expense, although there is a charge for wine (if taken with dinner or in the Senior Combination Room).There is a charge for subsequent dinners within the allowance.
It may be possible to bring an adult guest to high table, by prior arrangement, provided that space is available. Please contact the Domestic Bursar if you are contemplating bringing a guest. The cost of bringing a guest to dinner is £43.70 excluding wine.
Please note that a maximum of 6 alumni can exercise their dining privileges on any one night.
