UCL's impressive academic quad.

Study abroad in the heart of London! For students who want to be immersed in the charm and excitement of Britain, living and studying in London is the obvious choice. The cultural life in London is one of the richest and most diverse in the world. The city is home to Britain's top theatres, cinemas, national museums and art galleries. London also offers every possible kind of music venue, pub, bar, restaurant, shop and club, together with a wealth of leisure and sporting opportunities.

University College of London (UCL) is one of the most prestigious institutions in England, and is the third oldest university in the country. UCL occupies the same location, just north of Oxford Street and the British Museum, as it did when it was founded in 1826. It is, perhaps, the nearest there is to a campus university in central London. UCL’s student body is cosmopolitan, diverse and dynamic: students are attracted not only from all regions of Britain but also from 145 overseas countries.
