Study Abroad in England

What to Expect in England

When you study abroad in England, you see the best of the old and the new. Your host city and the country become your classroom as you find yourself touring the Tower of London, visiting Stonehenge, and attending performances in some of the world’s most historic venues…for class! 

Envision living and learning in a historic, culturally diverse city where “field trip” translate to exploring castles and landmarks. You make friends with local students you meet while taking classes at world-renowned universities. That’s what studying abroad in England is like, whether you choose London, Cambridge, or Oxford. Sound good? Then when you choose to study abroad, England is the perfect choice for you.
