PROMYS Europe is based at Wadham College, which celebrated its four hundredth anniversary in 2010.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be provided for PROMYS Europe participants in the college refectory or served in Wadham’s exquisite Hall.

Recent participants in PROMYS Europe had the following to say:

 “The food and accommodation was simply perfect, almost pure luxury! The service was outstanding.”

“Very yummy.”

“We were well catered for in Wadham in every sense of the word. I do not see how this could have been improved.”

“I was simply amazed by what I have seen in Wadham. The staff was extremely nice and helpful, everything was accessible in there (I had pretty much no need to leave the college), including food, which I was impressed by the variety which they were serving. I cannot compare this to anything I have experienced in my life. For me it was just perfect.”
