- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Governors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group and parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “This year has seen changes to the face of our Governing Body.”
- “The summer was a busy one for the College despite the absence of students. Over recent years, we have built a strong commercial income model through use of the College buildings for weddings, bed and breakfast and conferences over the vacations.”
- “Alongside the many weddings and events, further down North Bailey it was the turn of Lightfoot House to see the first phase of its refurbishment.”
- “Our other focus, generously supported by alumni and other friends and donors, is our accessibility project. Although we are still busily fundraising, we are planning to start over the Christmas vacation with the installation of an accessibility ramp into the Cassidy Quad.”
- “Recognising the University's need to increase the number of undergraduate places, this year's intake of freshers reached 170, a level only exceeded during the unprecedented COVID recruitment bubble.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
