Student life

Our creative communities are tight-knit, welcoming, and inclusive. Creative minds come in all shapes and sizes, and you’ll be sure to find social groups of like-minded people who’ll become friends for life.

Each of our campuses are in towns and cities with their own unique charms. Whether it’s the bustling city of Canterbury close to the Kent coast, homely craft town of Farnham nestled in the natural Surrey Hills, or the market town of Epsom where London’s just a short train ride away, there’s options for all personalities.

At each campus you’ll find the UCA Student’s Union, who represent the student voice and organise the annual Fresher’s Week and unique social events throughout the year. They host a number of identity communities, clubs, and societies – from K-Pop dance to film societies, life drawing and cheerleading – for you to meet and make new friends.

Campus and facilities

The Canterbury campus is close to the bustling historic city centre, which has a large selection of shops, restaurants, and nightlife. It's about 1 hour 30 minutes from London and also close to Continental ferry ports and Eurotunnel. Creative students will be well served in Canterbury, with the Turner Contemporary Gallery and major art events such as the Folkestone Triennial. 

The modern UCA Epsom campus is a short walk from the friendly town, which itself has been named one of the most desirable places to live in the country because of its friendly feel. And it's only 30 minutes from London's rich culture, nightlife, and work placement opportunities. 

The largest UCA campus is at Farnham, a market town with a rich creative past. The campus is a five minute walk from a host of shops, restaurants and pubs, together with vibrant arts' facilities such as The Maltings. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, and London only 30 minutes away by train.
