University of Kent: Canterbury - Direct Enrollment & Exchange

Study Abroad with the UK’s European university and enjoy a unique student experience and world-class education.
One of the UK’s leading universities, the University of Kent is ranked in the top 20 by the Guardian, and has the third highest score for overall student satisfaction (NSS). Our academics are engaged in world-leading research and this informs their teaching, enabling you to study with some of the most influential thinkers in your field. Our global reputation attracts students from around the world, allowing you to study in a truly diverse and cosmopolitan environment.
Less than an hour from London, our main campus is situated in Canterbury, a beautiful and vibrant student city in the heart of the ‘Garden of England’. Virginia Woolf famously wrote “there is no lovelier place in the world than Canterbury”, and each year many students from around the world fall in love with the city’s diverse and cosmopolitan charm. As you’d expect from a city with 30,000 students, there’s a rich social life too, and travel company Experian recently dubbed Canterbury the UK’s third most vibrant city.

Aside from its ideal positioning, Canterbury offers the perfect location from which to explore mainland Europe. Departing from the ‘White Cliffs of Dover’, France can be reached in 30 minutes, and Paris and Brussels are accessible in just under two hours.
