Description

Located 35 miles south west of Birmingham, Worcester is a historic town surrounded by the beautiful English countryside of the Malvern Hills and the Cotswolds. The town has many green outdoor spaces and gardens, with Tudor architecture and the impressive Worcester Cathedral built in 1504.

The university is equipped with modern facilities, a library and classrooms for creative activities. There are shopping centres, restaurants and attractions within a 10-minute walk of the residence. After class students will go to Shakespeare's birthplace Stratford-upon-Avon and walk around Worcester. There are clubs for every interest: sport, photography, drama, chess and computer club. Weekend trips are either to Bath, London or Oxford College. In the evenings there is dancing, games, a talent show and a battle of the phonograms.
