As of 2023, the college had an estimated [[financial endowment]] of £146.084 million, and their total net assets amounted to £238.316 million.<ref name="univ1718">{{cite web |title=University College Oxford: Annual Report and Financial Statements: Year ended 31 July 2023 |url=https://d307gmaoxpdmsg.cloudfront.net/collegeaccounts2223/University.pdf |access-date=20 Feb 2024 |website=ox.ac.uk |page=35}}</ref>

The college is associated with a number of [[List of alumni of University College, Oxford|influential people]], including [[Clement Attlee]], [[Harold Wilson]], [[Bill Clinton|Bill]] and [[Chelsea Clinton]], [[Neil Gorsuch]], [[Stephen Hawking]], [[C.

== History ==
A legend arose in the 14th century that the college was founded by [[King Alfred]] in 872.<ref>{{cite web |title=Official College Web-site |url=https://www.univ.ox.ac.uk/content/history-0 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130517131652/http://www.univ.ox.ac.uk/content/history-0 |archive-date=17 May 2013 |access-date=23 August 2013}}</ref> This explains why the college arms are those attributed to King Alfred, why the [[Visitor]] is always the reigning monarch, and why the college celebrated its millennium in 1872. Most agree, however, that the college was founded in 1249 by [[William of Durham]]. He bequeathed money to support ten or twelve masters of arts studying divinity; a property that became known as Aula Universitatis (University Hall) was bought in 1253.<ref name="history">{{cite web |title=Oxford History |url=https://www.oxfordhistory.org.uk/high/tour/south/university_college.html |access-date=23 August 2013}}</ref> This later date still allows the claim that Univ is the oldest of the Oxford colleges, although this is contested by [[Balliol College]] and [[Merton College]].<ref name="Balliol Archivist">{{cite web|title=Q&A: oldest established|url=https://balliolarchivist.wordpress.com/2011/10/06/q-a-oldest-established/|access-date=8 March 2019|publisher=balliolarchivist.wordpress.com}}</ref><ref name="Brockliss">{{cite book |last=Brockliss |first=L.

The college acquired four properties on its current site south of the High Street in 1332 and 1336 and built a quadrangle in the 15th century.<ref name="VCH University College">{{cite web|url= https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/oxon/vol3/pp61-81 |title=University College |publisher=british-history,ac.uk |access-date=8 March 2019}}</ref> As it grew in size and wealth, its [[medieval]] buildings were replaced with the current Main Quadrangle in the 17th century. Although the foundation stone was placed on 17 April 1634, the disruption of the [[English Civil War]] meant it was not completed until sometime in 1676.<ref name=UChistory /> [[Radcliffe Quad]] followed more rapidly by 1719, and the library was built in 1861.<ref>{{Cite web |title=History - University College Oxford (Univ) |url=https://www.univ.ox.ac.uk/about/history/ |access-date=2023-09-25 |website=University College Oxford |language=en-GB}}</ref>

Like many of Oxford's colleges, University College accepted its first mixed-sex cohort in 1979, having previously been an institution for men only.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.univ.ox.ac.uk/about/history/|title=History - University College Oxford|work=University College Oxford|access-date=2018-05-04|language=en-GB}}</ref>

== Buildings ==
[[File:The Logic Lane Bridge at University College Oxford.jpg|thumb|left|The [[Logic Lane covered bridge]] above [[Logic Lane]] running through University College, as viewed from the [[High Street, Oxford|High Street]].]]

The main entrance to the college is on the [[High Street, Oxford|High Street]] and its grounds are bounded by [[Merton Street]] and [[Magpie Lane, Oxford|Magpie Lane]]. The college is divided by [[Logic Lane]], which is owned by the college and runs through the centre. The western side of the college is occupied by the library, the hall, the chapel and the two quadrangles which house both student accommodation and college offices. The eastern side of the college is mainly devoted to student accommodation in rooms above the High Street shops, on Merton Street or in the separate Goodhart Building. This building is named after former master of the college, [[Arthur Lehman Goodhart]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Megarry |first=R. E. |date=1997 |title=Arthur Lehman Goodhart |url=https://www.thebritishacademy.ac.uk/documents/1398/94p475.pdf |publisher=The British Academy |page=13}}</ref>

A specially constructed building in the college, the [[Shelley Memorial]], houses a statue by [[Edward Onslow Ford]] of the poet [[Percy Bysshe Shelley]] – a former member of the college, who was sent down for writing ''[[The Necessity of Atheism]]'' (1811), along with his friend [[Thomas Jefferson Hogg|T. J. Hogg]]. Shelley is depicted lying dead on the Italian seashore.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Shelley Memorial|url=https://www.univ.ox.ac.uk/college_building/shelley-memorial/|access-date=2021-03-19|website=University College Oxford|language=en-GB}}</ref>

=== Grace ===
University has the longest [[Grace (prayer)|grace]] of any Oxford (and perhaps Cambridge) college.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Food - University College Oxford (Univ) - Food at Univ|url=https://www.univ.ox.ac.uk/live-at-univ/food/|access-date=2022-09-17|website=University College Oxford|language=en-GB}}</ref> It is read before every [[Formal Hall]], which is held on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. The reading is performed by a [[University of Oxford#Scholarships and financial support|Scholar]] of the college and whoever is sitting at the head of [[High Table]] (typically the Master, or the most senior [[Fellow]] at the table if the Master is not dining).
