Durham University..Colleges?

Which colleges would be convenient for an engineer?

Also, do any colleges have special facilities for athletics? Which one is nearest to an athletics track? Is there much of a sprinting scene at Durham?

Also, how is the social life? I heard it can be pretty boring... How much does it cost to get to Newcastle? Is it feasible having a night out there?

Hi, I'll apply for sports at Durham, but I don't know which college I want to go to. I like sports, beer, quiz, music etc. - which college should I apply for? Maybe St. Cuths?

Hi-

I just got an offer and don't really feel like cluttering up the board with my own thread, so I thought I might just post in this one. I don't know much about a collegiate system, but it does sound enjoyable. However, without a Sorting Hat, picking a college is going to be difficult on me. So I'm going to write a little paragraph about me and if you could help point me in the right direction, it would be great. I'm thinking of the Baileys right now~

I was accepted into a postgraduate masters program for paleopathology, which is in the archaeology department. I'm an international student (USA.) I'm not into the whole sport or drinking scene, but also wouldn't mind a bit of a social scene, since I won't know anyone. Also, I loooove old building and architecture and things steeped in tradition. It might just be the archaeologist in me, but stilllll ahhhhh-mayyyy-zziiiing. I don't really mind sharing/not-sharing, size, or catered/not-catered; either one is fine with me! I anticipate spending a lot of time on coursework as well, so something low-key is great.

From what I've read, Hatfield or Castle looks like something I should apply to, but I'm also not sure how posh I am Any help you can give me would be awesome!

tl;dr-- I don't know which college to apply for. ; ;
