Student Regulations, Policies and Codes of Practice

Details of Durham University’s Student Regulations, Policies and Codes of Practice can be found via the links below. It is important that you read and understand the Student Regulations, Policies and Codes of Practice as they set out the terms of the contract that you agree to comply with when accepting a place at Durham University.

We are aware that the Student Regulations are detailed and that there are a number of documents that make up the Student Regulations as this reflects the different ways in which you may interact with the Durham University environment. To help you to navigate the Student Regulations, we have summarised them below, together with a direct link to the relevant page of the University website. We strongly encourage you to familiarise yourself with all of the Student Regulations, Policies and Codes of Practice.

The first section – Information specific to applicants and potential applicants (pre-entry) – is of relevance to applicants and pre-applicants only (i.e. the information does not apply to registered students). The remaining sections are of relevance to both current and prospective students.
