It neighbours Hatfield College to its north, while St John's College and St Cuthbert's Society are to its south. The college is named after St Chad of Mercia, a 7th-century bishop.It is one of the smallest of Durham's colleges in terms of student numbers (in 2013-4, the college had 388 undergraduates and 180 active postgraduates), it nonetheless has the largest staff, extensive college library facilities, and among the highest undergraduate academic results in Durham.HistorySt Chad's was founded as an Anglican hall in 1904, principally to provide a university education for those considering ordination in the Church of England. For the first 70 years of its existence, a high proportion of students completed their undergraduate degree (in any discipline) at St Chad's and then remained for postgraduate training for ordination. The college remains a Church of England foundation but it ceased formal ordination training in 1971. Its current students study for degrees across all departments of the university.
