Durham College Allocation

Sadly no. Think it’ll be more like the 20th judging from previous years ☹️ . What are your top three?

Its defo super annoying tho, they havent really provided any info which is pretty bad when its peak exam season we shouldn't really have to worry about exams, and where we will be for the next year.

It’s not that deep though. You may be allocated one college now and get reallocated on results day. There are people who thought they were going to Hatfield or University College but were reallocated on results day to other colleges due to the capacity.
The suggestion is to focus on your exams and not worry too much on something that could change again.

That is very true im just the worlds most impatient person

That’s true. St Chad’s had a 40% reallocation rate after results day last year. Someone sent me the FOI stats but can’t find them now

In 2023, over 30% of applicants were reallocated from Castle, Collingwood, St Mary's & St Chad's - with St John's just under 25% - after confirmation of offers on results day. This is from a Palatinate article online, dated July 26, 2024.
Of course if students meet their offer and had firmed Durham then they have a higher chance of retaining their allocation.

Allocations might start being received this evening. Last year they started Monday (20th) from about 6pm and it looks like it was 14th/15th the year before. The colleges were no longer visible on the portal this weekend gone.
