This page is part of the offer-holders section for students who have been offered an undergraduate place at Christ's College.

Student talking

All the practical information about joining Christ's will be sent to you in the September before you start. 

For information, College Bills are normally sent to students in the days before each full term (so, three times a year) and payment of your bill is due two weeks after the start of full term. Full details about the payment of fees and College bills etc. will be included in the practical information about joining the College.
