One unique feature of Durham is our collegiate system. Our 17 Colleges or Societies provide a social, domestic and pastoral focus for students and help individuals flourish through mentoring and involvement with college life, sports and societies and community engagement. Students on the Study Abroad Programme are guaranteed accommodation and are fully integrated in one of our residential colleges for a true "Durham experience".
