The Oxford and Cambridge Act 1571 (13 Eliz. 1. c. 29) is an Act of the Parliament of England.

So much of this Act as imposed upon the mayor, aldermen, and citizens of the City of Oxford, or any of them, or any Municipal Officer of the City of Oxford, the obligation of taking any oath for the conservation of the liberties and privileges of the University of Oxford was repealed and annulled and made void by section 1 of the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge Act 1859.
