Durham College ranking?

I don’t care for nightlife or social outings. I’m more introverted but would still like to make friends. I’d just prefer to be around people like me - I.E., readers, those that prefer staying at home or casual outings rather than clubbing and alcohol etc.

I’m quite academic too. I really need to get an en-suite - i May be able to get it under special circumstances for my ASD but this isn’t guaranteed of course. I don’t care for catered or self-catered as I’m fussy with food anyway. Won’t use bars so don’t care for them.

Doing law btw. Any help is appreciated if you could give a ranking based on this info or just the best colleges. I know some are entirely en-suite but I do also want to ensure the college has good vibes and support etc x

Hiya,

If you're particularly wanting an ensuite, it's probably best to set your sights on the hill colleges as there are more ensuite options and you're more likely to get an ensuite room. If you're particular about food, I would probably recommend a self catered college as you're able to control what you want to eat/when (majority of hill colleges tend to be self catered as well). John Snow, South College, Stephenson College and Josephine Butler are probably your best bet as they're all self catered and have the best ensuite options 🙂

Hope this helps!

St John's College or St Mary's College perhaps, although the number of ensuites is low, 25 and 30 respectively.
St Hild and St Bede has 281 ensuite rooms for 1st years, which is nearly all of the 311 rooms the college has. Grey has 70 ensuite rooms.
Hatfield is regarded as the 'posh people college', if that's your thing. It has something like 100 ensuite rooms.
