I'm assuming here you mean sixth form/further education college At University you are more independent than at college and likely go out drinking more. It's harder to make friends because friends can be made situationally in college more easily but uni still has many friend groups.

Are you referring to Durham University and its colleges? If yes, then colleges are just halls of residence here at Durham. Durham is a collegiate university- there are 17 colleges and you can choose which one to go to based on your preference. So while you're at Durham, you will also always be part of a college.
Colleges have different facilities like a dining hall, gym, library, bar, social spaces etc. As a fresher, your college will organise a freshers' week where you can socialise and meet new people at different events. You can find more about them here: https://www.durham.ac.uk/colleges-an...ence/colleges/

I would say that the colleges at Durham are much more than just halls of residence. They have many sports teams, music and drama groups etc, which give another level of possible involvement below university teams and clubs for those who are of a lower standard or less dedicated.

Yeah I totally agree. I was just giving them the basic information to differentiate between college and uni. Thanks for adding this
