The college still has strong links with Wales, and about 15% of students are Welsh.^[1] There are 340 undergraduates and 190 students carrying out postgraduate studies.^[2] Women have been admitted since 1974, when the college was one of the first five men's colleges to become co-educational.^[3] Old members of Jesus College are sometimes known as "Jesubites".^[4]
