There’s so much more to college life than just studying. We want your time here to be fun and one that you’ll remember. At college, you’ll have the chance to be independent, meet new people and get involved with lots of fun activities. You’ll have the opportunity to join social and activity groups, and sports teams, go on trips and so much more with our Xtra team and Students’ Union.
