About

Experience the excitement of London—a cultural hub with a love for arts, history, architecture, and food—and study abroad in one of the most globally-recognized cities for business, fashion, culture, and more. Discover christianity's history and influence as you study the arts and sciences, both fruitful and necessary for the equipping of thoughtful, well-balanced Christian leaders. 

Through community service and outreach, Veritas students join with local ministries to engage youth and children through sports camps and VBS, serve the homeless on the streets, and reach out to students at Kingston and Roehampton universities. Students will grow in their faith as they discover what it means to be an international missionary, serve others, and gain a global perspective. Each Veritas program includes a Mission Mentor who disciples Veritas students in their experiences through prayer, reflection, and spiritual support as well as connects them to ministry partners and local churches. The International Mission/Service-Learning Practicum provides a great opportunity to reinforce the cross-cultural missions experience in-country. Students will receive college credits for the reflection activities, journal entries, and cultural research which enhance the overall experience.  

Fall and Spring semester students will take one three-credit Veritas course and the International Missions/Service-Learning Practicum (1-3 credits). Students will have the opportunity to choose from a broad selection of other courses from the Roehampton University catalog to maintain full-time status and fulfill their academic requirements.

Summer students will take the one-credit International Missions/Service-Learning Practicum and one 4-5 credit course from Roehampton each term.
