Welcome to the Collingwood College website!

Laid back and one of the least formal of the University's colleges, Collingwood is a young, vibrant community of active students and staff. We're one of the largest colleges - and we like to think, the friendliest! We have a broad mix of around 1100 undergraduates and postgraduates from all over the world and about 550 of our members live in the College. We have a flourishing community of senior members of the University as well, known as the SCR.

We value everyone who is attached to the College - staff, students and alumni – and we always look forward to welcoming new members!

Why choose Collingwood? Our students can tell you why...

Collingwood is an amazing college! You have to try very hard not to fit in. Coming here is signing onto perhaps the best time of your life and the opportunity to meet some incredible people.

I think Collingwood is fantastic because from the moment you arrive you feel part of a community, which gives you a sense of belonging and makes you feel at home. Being one of the larger colleges means that there are more people to meet from different walks of life.

Being a sport student, I was swayed by the standard of college sport. Collingwood has long been a very successful sporting college with numerous sports teams and trophies to match. The College has sports teams for all standards, so even if you're more Chester United than Man United there will be a place for you in a team.
