The College Fund is a single payment requested on entry to the college which covers the provision of those social and recreational ‘extras’ not otherwise provided for by public funding.  It funds, for example, the provision of recreational facilities in Sport, Leisure and Fitness, and in Music, Drama and Dance; minibus transport for local visits and matches; and student social facilities. In addition it supports College theatrical productions, and also enables the College to invite in various guest speakers. It encourages students to participate fully in the enrichment and social activities the college provides, and enables the college to provide them free to students instead of having to make charges for their use.

The sum requested from each student on entry is a single payment of £140, which covers the entire period of time a student remains at the college.  Payment is made at enrolment by cash or cheque (payable to ‘Collyer’s).  Alternatively, you may wish to pay by BACS direct into our bank account.

In the event of insufficient contributions being made the college would have to consider withdrawing the above facilities or charging for them, which would penalise students and remove opportunities.  A refund of the contribution for the year can be claimed if a student leaves before 1st November of that year; no refunds will be made after that date.
