International students

Loughborough University is a truly global institution with a strong commitment to providing an international learning experience for all students.

We have a long history of welcoming international students to the UK, and our London campus is home to postgraduate students from 35 countries plus the UK.

The great thing about Loughborough University London is the sense of international community. My friends come from a wide range of places including China, India, Thailand, Japan, Brazil, Europe and Africa which is amazing to connect with students all around the world.
