Christ’s College grew from God’s House, which was founded in 1437 on land that is now occupied by the magnificent King’s College Chapel. It received a Royal licence in 1446 and again a second licence in 1448 when the college moved to its present site. The college was renamed Christ’s college in 1505 when it was expanded and endowed by Lady Margaret Beaufort, mother of King Henry VII. The college is famous for it’s academic prowess and regularly finishes top of the unofficial Tompkin league of colleges.
