When we imagine England, we think back to the stories we were told as children and conjure up the quintessential images of quaint towns and villages; castles; stately homes; rolling green hills; great writers, poets, politicians and thinkers; the royal family; and a history that dates back thousands of years. The University of Kent, located in Canterbury, is based in one of the UKs most historic cities and encapsulates all of these things and more, offering an unrivalled student experience. University of Kent believes in providing students with an environment that is both intellectually and personally stimulating. Set in over 300 acres of parkland just over a mile away from the centre of Canterbury, it is able to offer a beautiful campus with views overlooking the stunning Canterbury Cathedral.

Canterbury also enjoys a wonderful location in southeast England, between two of the world's great cities of London and Paris.
