Life in

Warwick’s campus is home to students and staff from all over the world. Safe, inclusive and cosmopolitan, it offers everything you could need close at hand, including shops, banks, bars, cafés, restaurants, health and worship facilities.

The Sports and Wellness hub boasts a 12-lane 25m swimming pool, modern 230 station gym, indoor climbing and bouldering centre, flexible studio spaces, squash courts, outdoor sports pitches and a sports therapy clinic.

The Warwick Arts Centre hosts many arts and cultural activities run professionally and by students. Renovations in 2020 have resulted in a new art gallery, three new cinema screens, two theatres, a studio and restaurant.

Warwick’s campus is located in Coventry, which is the base for many of our students living off campus. Coventry is a city of contradictions, with modern high street shops, restaurants, nightclubs and bars, within a five minute walk of medieval monuments. Coventry railway station offers major connections across the UK: it takes just 20 minutes to travel to Birmingham (the second largest city in the UK), an exciting, ever-changing place with something for everyone; and an hour to reach London’s amazing attractions.

Many students also live in nearby Leamington Spa, which is just a bus ride away. It’s smaller than Coventry but still lively with plenty of bars, cafés and shops to explore. And for culture, history and heritage, step back in time at nearby Warwick Castle, Kenilworth Castle and Stratford-upon Avon, Shakespeare's birthplace and home to the world-famous Royal Shakespeare Company.
