The local area has plenty of beautiful English countryside to enjoy. Hatfield is a small town, with excellent road and rail links to London as well as other parts of the UK. There is a large shopping mall here called the Galleria, which is very close to the De Havilland campus, and many other small shops, restaurants, pubs, etc.

Accommodation is guaranteed for first year students. All halls are self-catering, all have high-speed internet access and all are very affordable, despite most of them being newly built. Estimated accommodation and living costs in Hertfordshire are £6,500 per year.

English language admission requirement is IELTS 6.0. There is a wide selection of pre-sessional English language programmes and international foundation programmes available, see the list at the bottom of this page for more details of these courses.

NOTE that students from China who have completed senior high school and obtained an IELTS score of 6.0 or higher can gain DIRECT admission onto most bachelor degree courses at The University of Hertfordshire. This means that, so long as a student’s level of English is good enough, they do not need to take a foundation course before starting a degree level course, as is the case at most other UK Universities.
