Royal Holloway University of London

The Royal Holloway University of London has a unique, best-of-both-worlds type combination in that it incorporates a small, close-knit community but is only a 40-minute train ride to the attractions of central London. The campus is set in a stunningly beautiful 135-acre plot of parkland with numerous teaching and study spaces, bars and cafés, high-quality accommodation, and sports facilities. It is a friendly place, with a strong sense of community that allows new students to quickly feel at home. The location has access to road and transport links and is only 7 miles from the Heathrow Airport, making coming and going extremely convenient. The beautiful campus is just one of the many aspect s that sets this school apart. The students and the staff bring the campus to life and give it a vibrant culture. The school is very involved with city life and likes to celebrate the engagement between the local community and the college through local events. These include the Egham Royal Show and Englefield Green Fair, lectures, Community Action Week and Volunteering Week. The university has a student union that is considered to be one of the most active in the country, with a variety of clubs and societies that students of all interests can join to pursue and share their passions.
