The University of Westminster and the housing neighborhoods

The University of Westminster has 4 main campuses through out London (Harrow Campus, Cavendish Campus, Marylebone Campus, and Regent Campus). Students may have the opportunity to take courses at multiple locations. Students taking classes at the Regent and Cavendish Campuses will find themselves near Oxford Street (the longest shopping street in the world), SoHo, and the extraordinary British Museum. Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum and the beautiful Regent’s Park are located just across the street from the Marylebone Campus. Students enrolled in courses at Harrow Campus will be provided with the opportunity to study on a true campus environment, as opposed to the urban settings where the other campuses are set. Students should be advised that the commute from central London to the Harrow Campus takes approximately 45 minutes by tube (subway).

Depending on your term abroad, University of Westminster students have the opportunity to select their dorm and housing location within London. Wigram House, located near Victoria tube station, is near central location with major city attractions such as Buckingham Palace and the River Thames, only a few minutes away. The International House is located on the south side of the River Thames, in close proximity to Waterloo Station and the excitement that takes place along the Queen’s Walk and Embankment. Harrow Hall is located on the Harrow Campus, providing students a more suburban lifestyle. The Furnival House Hall of Residence is situated in the quaint and fashionable residential area of Highgate and Hampstead, in close proximity to Hampstead Heath, a popular weekend park.

All campuses and housing accommodations are conveniently located near major city transportation routes.
