Royal Holloway, University of London

Our students talk passionately about the unique culture of Royal Holloway and a ‘feel’ they love. You’ll quickly get to know your fellow students and tutors and will soon recognise faces as you walk around campus.

Our accommodation has something for everyone, from traditional university living in the Grade I listed Founder’s Building to modern shared flats and townhouses. We guarantee a place in halls to all first-year undergraduates who firmly accept their offer and apply by our deadline.

You can get involved with as many of our 100+ sports clubs and societies as you wish, whether you want to sing, dance, game, debate, keep fit or simply meet like-minded people. There’s also a thriving music community and media opportunities, including a university newspaper, magazine, radio station and TV studio.

There’s a sports centre on campus, with a well-equipped gym, dance studio and sports hall, and outdoor facilities, including tennis courts, sports fields and all-weather floodlit pitch.

Our campus combines rich history with contemporary development, with top quality facilities available whatever subject you choose. Our inspiring campus is easy to navigate and has everything you’ll need on your doorstep.

Highlights include our impressive Founder’s Building, our library and student services centre, named in honour of suffragette and alumna Emily Wilding Davison, a selection of cafés, bars and restaurants and a popular sports centre and gym. All this is set within 135 acres of parkland, providing a tranquil escape and a chance to relax your body and mind.

We’re also ideally placed with plenty to do in the local area, including opportunities for part-time jobs, but also easily accessible to and from London, with everything the capital has to offer. We’re near Heathrow airport perfect for commuting if you live in the south east of England. As a Royal Holloway student, you’ll also be able to access other University of London facilities, including Senate House Library.
