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 including the UK.

Studying with us means joining a global community and connecting with students from around the world. You’ll share ideas, experiences and new perspectives with your peers, while building friendships and connections that can last well beyond your time at university.

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.
