University of Roehampton
Founded in the 1840s and one of the first UK institutions to admit women, the University of Roehampton is set on a traditional, parkland campus in southwest London. Tennis and nature fans will love its proximity to Wimbledon Common and Richmond Park—two of the city’s most iconic green spaces—while still enjoying quick access to central London. With a U.S.-style layout and a strong tradition in the arts, social sciences, and teacher training, Roehampton offers a close-knit, creatively rich academic environment.
Study a wide range of English-taught modules across subjects such as dance, drama, business, biology, humanities, education, exercise and health science, and social science.
Learn in small, seminar-style classes that promote close faculty interaction and personalized attention.
Join a lively student community with over 50 clubs and societies—from drama and esports to LGBTQ+ and vegan groups.
