Clare College

Welcome to Clare College, the University of Cambridge's second oldest college. Founded in 1326, Clare College is home to seventeenth century architecture, stunning gardens, and a riverside location in the heart of the city. Warm, forward thinking, and with a reputation for academic excellence, Clare welcomes students of all backgrounds to a community in which they will thrive academically and personally. In 1326, Clare was the first Oxford or Cambridge foundation to bring together a Master, Fellows, and Scholars in a single community. Today we are a diverse College community brought together by a common interest in learning, teaching, and research with around 100 Fellows, 300 postgraduate students, and 500 undergraduate students.
