College Support for Student Parents

Family sitting together on the sofa

Your college is here to provide assistance to you while you are studying at the University.  As a student parent you have a unique set of needs which your college will aim to support.  

Accommodation

Some colleges provide family accommodation for students with families. To research your options please go to www.graduate.study.cam.ac.uk/colleges/key-facts-and-figures and click on individual college links. If your college cannot provide appropriate accommodation, the University's Accommodation Service may be able to assist you.

 

College Nurseries

There are three local nurseries, which either belong to colleges or have places assigned for specific colleges. 

 

College Childcare Contacts

Each College has a designated Childcare Contact who is a point of contact and a voice for student parents within their College.

They provide information on their College's family accommodation and financial support available to student parents. They are also encouraged to work with the College in order to ensure that arrival, orientation and social, pastoral and academic events are accessible to all student parents. Along with the MCR, Childcare Contacts are also encouraged to play a role in organising child-friendly events to enable student parents to meet, as well as facilitate communications between them.
