General enquiries – 0191 334 2000
You can phone the Durham University switchboard number 0191 334 2000 for both general enquiries or to be directed to a specific academic department. For instance, you may have enquiries about the admission criteria for a particular undergraduate course before asking about any additional funding opportunities available to students. Alternatively, callers to the UK switchboard number may wish to ask for directions to the Durham University Hospital, health centre or main library. In addition, prospective students will also be able to enquire about the date of an upcoming Open Day, and can both book a place on both a departmental and campus tour on this number. If you are a offer-holder then you may wish to enquire about the term dates prior to enrolling at Durham, or ask when your timetable and email are available to be accessed via the university’s online student portal.

However, calls to the international student helpline +44 191 334 6328 will be charged at a significantly higher rate than when making a UK phone call.
