Â鶹Íø

When choosing where to study, we understand the location is just as important as the university. What you learn in books is just the start, so when you’re not busy learning, you’ll be busy living student life. Shopping and socialising in a safe place, soaking up art and culture, enjoying high-profile sports, or taking a break from the city in beautiful countryside locations – Leicester has everything you’re looking for and more. 92% of students said they would recommend Â鶹Íø to a friend and ranked us 25th best university in the UK [Uni Compare rankings 2024]. 

We’re a campus-based uni situated in the city centre, with the hub of activity in Leicester right on your doorstep – and we’re one of the few unis in the UK where you’re getting the best of both worlds. Leicester has been named the sixth most vibrant city in the UK, putting it ahead of the likes of Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool and Leeds (Top Cities Vibrancy Report, 2023), as well as the best city in the East Midlands to live and work (Good Growth for Cities Index, 2023). Our award-winning campus offers a safe space to live and study with convenient access to accommodation, shopping, nightlife and all that’s on offer in the city centre.
