愛德華二世在1320年代提供贊助,由其廷臣亞當·德·布魯姆為該書院奠基,當時稱牛津聖母瑪麗學堂(House or Hall of the Blessed Mary at Oxford)。[4] 該書院在16世紀之前只接受非本科生做成員,之後才開始接納本科生入學。[5] 英格蘭內戰期間,奧利爾書院是牛津議會(Oxford Parliament)駐地。[6]

該書院有四座中世紀建築構成,即Bedel Hal、St Mary Hall、St Martin Hall和Tackley's Inn。其中Tackley's Inn是該書院最古老的地產,也是牛津最古老的中世紀建築之一。[7] 該書院現有大約40名成員、300名本科生和160名研究生,男女人數基本持平。[5]
