Education Economics

If you’re thinking about moving to London, perhaps to study, or to live and work, then you might already have decided whether or not it’s for you. If you’re still undecided, here’s what you need to think about.

1. London is the capital city of England, and has a lot of rich and varied history. As well as the museums, galleries and monuments, there’s lots of culture from the many influences and people from all over the world who live in this incredible city.

2. There’s always something going on here. From the many festivals and cultural events to the exhibitions and conferences, you’re bound to find plenty to keep you entertained, no matter what your interests and hobbies are.

If you’re considering studying at a University in London, then perhaps you’ve already decided what you want to study, and which university you want to go to. If you haven’t yet decided, then here’s what you need to think about.

1. You’ll want to choose a university in London that offers the course you want to do. Although you might really want to study in London, if there’s a more appropriate course, or a university well known for your subject elsewhere, would you be better off studying there instead?

2. Accommodation will be another consideration. Will you be living in private accommodation, or will you be able to stay in halls of residence on the university campus? London accommodation will be expensive, and so you’ll want to make sure that you’re getting the best value and making the most of your time in the capital city.
