Location

Our Canterbury campus is well connected with buses and National Express stopping hourly throughout the day on campus. We’re also only a short walk away from two train stations and a bus station, meaning you can be in London in under an hour. The campus is a short drive from the Channel Tunnel helping you to travel into Europe.
