Buildings
Over its history, Selwyn has been profoundly shaped by the generosity of its benefactors. In the past 25 years, the College has undergone a remarkable period of development, with much of its estate being completely transformed. This era of significant building activity has been made possible largely through philanthropic support. Below is an overview of the key projects that have redefined Selwyn:

As a college that was founded in the late 19th century without an endowment, the development of Selwyn’s estate has always depended on the generosity of benefactors, both alumni and other friends. In the 21st century, the college continues to evolve plans to upgrade its much-loved heritage buildings, especially Old Court. Additionally, there are ambitions for brand new buildings that will help ensure Selwyn continues to offer some of the best accommodation and facilities in Cambridge.
