About the  University of Leicester

  • The University of Leicester is a public research university based in Leicester, England. The main campus is south of the city centre, adjacent to Victoria Park. The university's predecessor, University College, Leicester, gained university status in 1957. The university was previously consistently ranked among the top 20 universities in the United Kingdom by the Times Good University Guide and The Guardian. In 2017, the university ranked 25th in The Sunday Times Good University Guide.
    The university is held in high regard for the quality of its teaching. 19 subject areas have been graded as "Excellent" by the Quality Assurance Agency – including 14 successive scores of 22 points or above stretching back to 1998, six of which were maximum scores. Leicester was ranked joint first in the 2005, 2006, and 2007 National Student Survey for overall student satisfaction among mainstream universities in England. It was second only to Cambridge in 2008 and again joint first in 2009.

Location


Accommodation

  • The Village
    There are eight halls of residence in The Village, each with its own distinctive features and range of room types/prices. We also offer a range of fantastic converted properties - mostly Edwardian villas and lodges, built before the First World War. Each house is unique and each room is different, with amazing features that include wood-panelled walls and secret gardens. The appeal of The Village halls is not just the buildings, but also the amazing amount of green space around them – including the University’s own beautiful Botanic Garden.

    The City
    All our properties in The City are purpose-built blocks within ten minutes’ walk of campus. They’re convenient for the city centre and railway station too, as well as for facilities such as the Library and the Danielle Brown Sports Centre. Most of the rooms are ensuite. All the rooms are self-catered. As well as enjoying social events within The City accommodation, you can get the bus to The Village for all the events and facilities out there.
