We know coming to a new city can be overwhelming. That's why we have our Freshers group so you can reach out to others.

We've compiled a list of essentials every Fresher shouldn't forget.

Before you arrive in Durham, make sure you get to grips with the many words and phrases you'll hear around campus.

We’re still gathering this year's picks as chosen by you! In the meantime, you can always get in the celebration mood and listen to last year's picks (there’s a lot of Taylor for you swifties!)

We know it can be a scary, challenging period during your first few weeks. Have a read of this article for some advice from Durham students to help make the transition easier.

Look out for an email from us in your inbox! If you don't have access to your University inbox, check when you do. If you don't have an email from us, reach out and we'll do the rest!

Stuck for something to do? We've got you covered with plenty of events to choose from.

With over 300 Student Groups, have a look for one that might interest you. If you can't find one, we can help support you in setting one up!

Your Officers are elected by the student body. They're here to work on the issues that are important to you.

With an independent advice service, we're always here for you during your time in Durham.
