Governance of the University of Cambridge

The University of Cambridge is in fact only a loosely organized association of colleges, each of which is highly autonomous, but all of which abide by the unified Cambridge University Charter, which was drafted and approved by the University's legislature, and which is revised annually. The University of Cambridge is responsible only for examinations and the awarding of degrees, while the specific criteria for admission are determined by the colleges themselves, and they enroll their own students.

The 31 colleges of the University of Cambridge are staggered in a town of about 100,000 people. The colleges were built in different eras, the earliest being 700 or 800 years old. Just like their buildings, each has its own unique characteristics. The universities and colleges, though complementary, are separate entities and economically independent.
