Undergraduate Residence Charges
Tuition Fees
*Junior Common Room Membership Fee (one off payment): £151
Membership of a Junior Common Room or JCR is a unique Durham University college experience. In the case of Josephine Butler College there is a one off membership fee of £151 that covers the whole of your three year undergraduate programme. Everyone's fee goes into a fund that allows the student exec to stage all kinds of activities and events throughout the year from Freshers’ Week to the annual Summer Ball, it helps buy equipment for sports teams and societies and fund campaigns. All of these help the JCR improve the experience of Josephine Butler students whether they live in or outside of college.
*Butler Association Fund (2 or more year courses): £40
This confers membership of the College Association for life. This fund also includes support for running and stocking the College Library (with many course texts and a laptop loan system) and support for members to bid for assets, development projects and opportunities. The fund is overseen by the College Trust Board which comprises a majority independent membership and representation from the common rooms
