The usual requirement is over 18, the legal age of majority in the UK. Students younger than that can be admitted on a case-by-case basis but it's unlikely.

Was oxford universiy the first university ever?

No. That would be the University of Bologna, founded in 1088, nearly 100 years before Oxford was. Oxford is the oldest University in the English-speaking world and the second oldest university period that's still in operation though. (The University of Paris was founded before Oxford University, but all French universities were suspended from 1793 to 1896; the modern Sorbonne can trace its roots to the University of Paris, but it's not the same university.)
