The Durham College Allocation Thread (for 2015 entry)

I've been allocated to Josephine Butler!

Hi, I've got a question - does anyone know if self-catering is an option at St Hild & Bede as I can't really find this info on the website??

I'm going there too What are you studying?

As far as I'm aware the only colleges that offer self catering are Butler and partially Cuthberts

Haha really?! Will you be attending one of the college open days? I applied for Politics, what about you?

I've been allocated to Josephine Butler!

I'm not sure yet as I would have to take 2 days off school which I'm not sure about doing so close to Easter. Are you? I'm studying Ba Geography

Great! Is Durham your first choice?

Ive been allocated to Trevelyan college, studying law. Does anyone know what this college is like as I have no idea...

I currently have the agonising decision between Durham and Warwick! Still very unsure!

I got allowed there, it's a bit of a disappointment because they make you change rooms every term for the first year as you pretty much have to share a room for at least one term. It's a small college and you have to be catered and no rooms are ensuite unless medical reasons require this. So I'm not accepting the offer but by the sounds of it there are worse colleges so it's not too bad ������

I understand your dilemma! I feel i have no choice but to go as I hated my first experience at Durham and i'm hoping that this trip will change my mind! Wow, Durham has one of the best Geography Departments in the world, right?

Aww no your joking!! im so gutted, what if i ask to change colleges do you think I will have a chance of doing that? ideally i wanted an en suite pretty gutted tbh
