Highlights: England is one of the world's most popular destinations. It is enjoyed by millions of visitors each year including thousands of international students. Students find England appealing for various reasons. Bustling cities rich in history and culture, beautiful green countryside, castles, cathedrals, pubs, and quaint rural villages give England a diversity that provides something for everyone.

Located just south of the breathtaking Lake District in picturesque rural Lancashire (only 5 minutes walk from Ormskirk, a bustling market town with pubs and restaurants), the campus is only 30 minutes from two of England's most happening cities - Liverpool and Manchester - with theatres, cinemas, concerts, museums and extensive shopping. To top it all off, the campus is only 2 hours from Wales, 3 hours by train to Scotland and 4 hours by ferry to Ireland. In this location, the opportunities for learning and fun are boundless.

Accommodations are provided in a single study bedroom in a campus residence hall, where both local and International students reside.
