  • Most of the colleges forming the University of Cambridge and University of Oxford are paired into sister colleges across the two universities . The extent of the arrangement differs from case to case, but commonly includes the right to dine at one's sister college, the right to book accommodation there, the holding of joint events between JCRs and invitations to May balls. Most of the pairings reflect similarities between the two colleges concerned, often parallel histories. For example, University College, Oxford (an ancient and prestigious college, founded 1249) is paired with Trinity Hall, Cambridge (of similar reputation, founded 1350). William Wykeham's statutes for New College, Oxford, founded in 1379, formed the basis of the foundation of its sister college, King's College, Cambridge. The two Colleges both share distinguished choral reputations.. Founded by scholars from Merton College (1282), Peterhouse (Cambridge) is paired with Merton College. Similarly, Somerville College, Oxford (founded in 1879 as a women's institution) has Girton College, Cambridge (also historically a women's college, founded 1869) as its sister college. St Catherine's College, Oxford (the most recent undergraduate college in Oxford, founded 1963) is paired with Robinson College, Cambridge (the newest Cambridge college, founded 1977). Oriel College, Oxford and St John's College, Cambridge also have links with Trinity College, Dublin. Oriel College and St Hugh's College, Oxford, currently each dispute the other's claim to sister college status with Clare College, Cambridge.
  • Majoritatea colegilor ale Universităţii Cambridge au colegii echivalente, sau "înfrăţite" (în engleză, sister colleges) în Universitea Oxford şi vice versa. Spre exemplu, Oriel College, Oxford şi St John's College, Cambridge au legături de înfrăţire cu Trinity College, Dublin. Aranjamentele şi gradul de înfrăţire diferă de la caz la caz, dar conţin în mod obişnuit dreptul de a participa la Balul din Mai, dreptul de a mânca la facilităţile celorlalte colegii, dreptul de a folosi cărţile din biblioteci, etc..
