Our vibrant campus is home to a diverse, tight-knit community. This is strengthened by our Students’ Union, which supports over 200 student-run clubs and societies for a range of interests and identities. Societies offer great opportunities to meet like-minded people, take a break from studying, and develop new skills.
Our collegiate system splits the university into smaller communities, with postgraduate students joining Graduate College. The colleges are inclusive communities of students, making it easy to make new friends. They offer access to wellbeing support, quiet study spaces, social events, and 24-hour security during term-time. They’re also where our high-quality on-campus accommodation is located, with a range of options to suit different needs, preferences and budgets.
Just three miles from our campus is the historic city centre of Lancaster. It’s a student-friendly location which is compact and easy to navigate, but still offers everything you’d expect from a city. It has a vibrant café culture, a range of restaurants serving global cuisine, a thriving independent retail scene, and a buzzing nightlife. We also have great transport links: the stunning Lake District is just 30 minutes away, and within a 2.5-hour train journey, you could be in London, Glasgow or Edinburgh.
By studying at Lancaster, you’ll have a strong network of support behind you. We offer a range of free specialist services including wellbeing and mental health services, academic support, financial advice, and our Disability and Inclusive Practice Service.
