Colleges. 62. The Colleges of Durham University play a critical role in supporting activity designed to increase applications and enrolments from under-represented groups and in providing opportunities for students from those backgrounds to succeed in their studies. The foundation of all outreach work at the University is the student body, and the Colleges provide a locus for the activities in which current students engage with target students. Fair access residential activity such as Supported Progression, Xxxxxx Trust Summer Schools, Access Partnerships and engagement with teachers and advisers is based within the Colleges. College communities are a focus for pre-application open day and post-offer visit day activity with considerable involvement from Junior Common Rooms. These are key events with considerable influence in encouraging applications and acceptances and valuable opportunities to overcoming perceived barriers to entering the University for students from under-represented backgrounds.
