Crossword Genius

College of note, possibly (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eton

'college' is the definition.
(Eton College, English private school)

'note possibly' is the wordplay.
'possibly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'note' is an anagram of 'ETON'.

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for eton that I've seen before include "Public school founded by Henry VI" , "Collar - crop - jacket - school" , "Noted public school" , "Famous college" , "English college of note" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
