        The first thing worth mentioning about the University of Warwick is that it is not in Warwick, but actually just outside the industrial town of Coventry, on the border of the county of Warwickshire.

        

         Consistently placed very high up the various national league tables, Warwick’s reputation for the quality of its teaching and research has grown enormously since it was founded in 1965. Coupled with low student to staff ratios and many top academic teaching staff, this means that nowadays entrance requirements and competition for places is extremely high.

        

        Students are attracted by its reputation, academic excellence, research capabilities and scenic, self-contained campus with excellent facilities, plus a well rated campus social scene. There are also many student societies here including well respected sports teams and student newspapers, radio and TV stations.

        

        Total student population is very large, around 30,000, one third of which are postgraduates. Quite a high percentage (12%) of undergraduates come from outside the UK or the EU.

         The historic town of Warwick has a wonderful old castle, but this is some distance away from the university, although well worth a visit. Coventry is a typical industrial Midlands town which does not offer much in the way of social life or entertainment but at least it has all the shops and facilities most students require.

 

         All first year students are guaranteed on-campus accommodation. After the first year, students usually have to leave the campus “bubble” and search for private accommodation in Coventry or in other small, nearby towns.

 

 

        Estimated accommodation and living costs in Coventry are £6,500 per year.

 

         English language admission requirement is IELTS 6.0 – 7.0 depending on the subject to be studied. The university offers pre-sessional English language courses and a range of foundation courses that are taught at a nearby further education college.

 

 

                Overseas student fees:

 

 

                Non-science based courses                         £9,000

                Science and Engineering based courses     £11,000

                Medicine courses                                         £11,000 – 20,000
