Our Life at Newnham pages will also give you more information about College life including the accommodation options on offer, the societies you can join, support available to help you flourish, as well as a handy student A-Z guide.

Our students come from all types of educational, social and cultural background, and we welcome the diversity and fun that brings. There’s a lively social, sporting and cultural life, and everyone can make lasting friends here; we’re proud of our unpretentious and democratic community.
