University of Oxford
The University of Oxford is a university in Oxford, United Kingdom. It is the oldest university in UK and in the English-speaking world.  The university is more than 800 years old.  There is no clear date of foundation, but teaching existed at Oxford in some form in 1096 and developed rapidly from 1167, when Henry II banned English students from attending the University of Paris.  Many English scholars settled in Oxford and so Oxford developed rapidly under the patronage of the King and received fund from the rich.  So 1167 was marked as the beginning of Oxford.

University of London
