Building work at Fitz
This year, in the heart of the main College site, we are renovating staircases M–P and adding a new satellite extension to P staircase. The £13m project will upgrade the staircases to incorporate 80 ensuite rooms, 12 communal kitchens, and a reflection room. The facilities will be ready for the start of Michaelmas 2026. You can learn more about the project here.
