The Oxford University Society (OUS) is the official alumni organisation of
the University of Oxford. It is an autonomous charitable company, limited
by guarantee. Its object is the advancement of the purposes and interests
of the University of Oxford. All who have matriculated at the University,
or who have engaged in academic work in the University or in any college,
are eligible to register for membership. There is no subscription.
The Society encourages closer relations between its members and the
collegiate University by supporting a worldwide network of autonomous
Branches run by volunteers. The Branches organise local events, usually
with an educational, intellectual, and enjoyable social dimension, and
frequently with a prominent local Oxonian or visitor from Oxford as
speaker. Events help to bring members together and keep them better
informed about the contemporary University.
Oxford University Society has international branches too.
