University of Kent

University is where people from near and far come to explore their ambition. At Kent, you’ll do this is a welcoming environment surrounded by new friends and with extensive student support services available to you. Not only will you learn about your chosen subject, but you’ll be able to learn more about (and expand) your interests. This could mean playing a new sport for the first time; trying your hand at adventure gaming, or even giving stand-up comedy a go! All students are invited to join Kent Union, which offers you the opportunity to join hundreds of societies, sports organisations and community action groups. If there’s not a society that appeals to you, they’ll help you to set up one that does!
