Balliol tends to have a lot of philosophy graduate students, and Wadham is considered to be one of the most left-wing colleges. Looking at the list of current Oxford philosophy graduate students, I noticed there are a lot at St Anne’s right now as well. But this can change depending on the year, and philosophy student obviously doesn’t mean EA. I would be surprised if any college reliably had a higher number of EAs.
AlasdairGives’ suggestion to consider funding options makes sense, though you should also keep in mind that the wealthiest colleges get the most applications, so if you apply to St John’s, there’s more of a risk they won’t pick you, and then there’s more randomness in the college you end up at.
