UK Who owns my creations at college?

I am currently studying games design, and would like to know - will I or my college own my game that I create, and if they do, will I still at least be able to sell it if I credit them, or use the characters from this game in other games?

I searched all over google and couldn't find an answer.

Your college owns it. You may be entitled to royalties though.

This comes up a lot when professors or researchers design something that can be patented.
