Following your ambition doesn’t have to mean moving away.

Join a Top 50* university on your doorstep this September and start building your future in an environment where you’ll flourish.

They know you’ll love your time there, making the most of the industry-standard facilities and soaking up all the experiences offered on their dynamic, creative and inclusive campuses.

Be curious, develop your imagination and expand your ambition as part of a community that values diverse and innovative perspectives. You’ll have access to well-resourced libraries, personal support, and outstanding careers guidance, plus hundreds of societies and excellent sports facilities (including free gym and sports membership for your first year).

Both the Canterbury and Medway campuses provide spacious teaching facilities and well-resourced libraries designed to support a wide range of learners; as you get “career-ready” while learning from experienced experts.

On many courses you can gain valuable experience by spending a year working in industry or a year studying abroad; or adding a year in Journalism, Computing, Data Science or a Language to your degree.

If you don’t get the grades you were hoping for, or are considering a complete change of subject, many of the degrees offer Foundation Year options.

It’s not all about studying at Kent – there’s so much to do beyond your degree. Societies and sports clubs cover a variety of interests, ranging from American football to gaming; hockey to film.

There are also societies for different nationalities and cultural heritages; LGBTQIA+ students, as well as faith groups and mature student groups. If there isn’t a society that represents your interests, you can start your own and find other like-minded students.

With families feeling the cost of living squeeze, at Kent they’re working hard to support their students. All first-years receive the free gym membership mentioned above; and they offer heavily discounted travel on local bus routes, meal deals available on campus, and other money-saving options.

You can take advantage of the free shuttle bus that runs between Canterbury and Medway; meaning that you can enjoy the facilities available on both campuses, including their nightclub, cinema, gym and sports facilities, shops, cafes and bars.

Whatever your interests, whatever your goals, they’re sure you’ll find your place at Kent. Apply during Clearing.
