| Schedule E, Part I, Line 3 | A racially discriminatory policy would be illegal within the UK so it would be unusual for the University to make such a statement. However, the University's undergraduate and postgraduate admissions websites and prospectuses make it clear that admissions decisions are taken within the framework of the University's Equality Policy and the Equality Act 2010, and specifically that "Oxford is committed to recruiting the best candidates from all backgrounds and all identities. The University is committed to fostering an inclusive culture which promotes equality and values diversity." |
| Schedule E, Part I, Line 6 | Oxford University receives various forms of grants and aid from U.K government agencies including via the Office for Students (OfS). Research funding is received from a variety of US governmental agencies. |

| Form 990, Part V, Line 3b | The University has requested an extension to the filing deadline for form 990-T. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 4 | During the financial year 1 August 2021 to 31 July 2022, the University made the following changes to its statutes: Statute VII: The supervision of the Department of Continuing Education has been amplified to be via the Continuing Education Strategic Management Board; Statute X: Two degrees have been added to the list of additional degrees that shall be conferred: Master in Science in Experimental Pscyhology; Master in Science in Psychology, Philosophy and Linguistics; Schedule to the Statutes: Amendments have been made to Part 6 Montague Burton Professor of International Relations to state that the Professor will undertake research in as well as lecture in International Relations. Also, the membership of the Electoral Board has been changed to remove the expectation that another person would be appointed by Council in the event that the Vice-Chancellor was also Master of Balliol College. All changes to statutes require the approval of Congregation. Regulations are amended on a regular basis and are too numerous to list here. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7a | Congregation, the University's ultimate legislative body, is composed of virtually all academic staff and certain research support staff, administrators and librarians. Members of Congregation elect eleven members of Council and approve the appointment of the four external members of Council. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7b | Congregation has responsibility for considering major policy issues submitted to it by Council or members of Congregation; elects members to certain University bodies, including Council; and approves changes to the University's statutes and regulations, which define the University's governance structure. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b | Once the University's financial statements have been signed off, a meeting is arranged with key finance/tax personnel to identify changes from the previous year's Form 990, identify changes in applicable law, agree methodology for gathering information and agree a timetable for completion and review of the Form 990. After information has been gathered, figures are prepared and reconciled to the financial statements. A review is done at this stage by key tax/finance staff to ensure accuracy and completeness. Prior to submission, a final review of the Form 990 is undertaken by key staff including the Head of Tax and the Group Tax Director on behalf of Council (the University's governing body). |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c | The University has a conflict of interest committee, the remit of which includes ensuring that there are appropriate systems in place to promote and monitor compliance with the University's policy on conflict of interest. Committee secretaries are asked to draw the conflict of interest policy to the attention of their members on an annual basis and to remind committee members at each meeting of the requirement to declare any conflicts or potential conflicts. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 | The University has a committee to review the salaries of senior University officers. The committee includes three members who are external to the University, two members who are not employees of the University, and a member of the University whose role it is to uphold the University's statutes and policies throughout its governance and administration. This committee is responsible for setting and reviewing the remuneration of the Vice-Chancellor, Registrar, Pro-Vice-Chancellors, Heads of Division, and Director of Finance. The committee determines salaries on appointment and reviews remuneration biennially to ensure it remains appropriate. In setting senior remuneration packages the committee ensures fair (equitable), appropriate and justifiable levels of remuneration, taking account of: * the context in which the University operates and institutional performance within that context; * the remit and responsibilities of a role, and attributes required to undertake that role effectively; * the market rate in UK Universities for jobs of comparable scale and type. Benchmarking information is used and interpreted based on the scale, structure and ambition of the University. Where it is relevant the Committee may take account of evidence about the international market for comparable roles * factors in addition to the market rate which might lead to an adjustment to the salary, including: o the academic discipline of the individual; o their track record in academic and leadership roles; o internal relativities for jobs of comparable scale and type. The pattern of pay is checked against the relative size and complexity of the roles; and o retention and flight risk, where there is a clear and evidenced concern. |

Financial statements are also available at https://www.ox.ac.uk/about/organisation/finance-and-funding?wssl=1.
