Association for the Education of Women

The Association for the Education of Women or Association for Promoting the Higher Education of Women in Oxford^[1] (AEW) was formed in 1878 to promote the education of women at the University of Oxford. It provided lectures and tutorials for students at the four women's halls in Oxford, as well as for female students living at home or in lodgings and was dissolved in 1920 when women were admitted as members of the university.
