All Souls College of Oxford University presents itself at
http://www.all-souls.ox.ac.uk/:
“The College of All Souls of the Faithful Departed (...) was founded by Henry VI
and Henry Chichele (fellow of New College and Archbishop of Canterbury), in
1438. Today the College is primarily an academic research institution with
particular strengths in the Humanities and Social and Theoretical Sciences and
an outstanding library. (...) Although its fellows are involved in teaching and
supervision of research, there are no undergraduate members.”
The arms
shown on the site are blazoned here:

three cinquefoils gules” i.e. the Chicely arms (here seen with Canterbury See):
