Epsom College is a co-educational Independent school, on the slopes of Epsom Downs in Surrey, in Southern England, for pupils aged 11 to 18. Founded in 1853 as a boys' school to provide support for poor members of the medical profession such as pensioners and orphans ("Foundationers"), Epsom's long-standing association with medicine was estimated in 1980 as having helped almost a third of its 10,000 alumni enter that profession. The college caters to both boarding and day pupils. The headmaster is a member of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference (HMC). The college's patron is Elizabeth II.
