The official re-opening of Cripps Court has been set for December 3rd, but the building will be fully operational again in time for the academic year starting this autumn.
Cripps New Bedroom
Cripps Refurbished Kitchen
The building dates from 1968, and originally had 170 rooms. This refurbishment, costing just over £13m and taking the best part of two years, has made the vast majority of accommodation en-suite; and it has added an extra level with 52 new rooms including kitchen and communal areas with views over Cambridge. With its two other main Courts, this means that Selwyn offers affordable housing on-site for virtually all its undergraduates and graduates; and the new Cripps will make better use of light and colour to create a great living and working environment.
