Richmond, The American International University in London

Richmond degrees are accredited in the US and validated in the UK and thereby acknowledged worldwide. Richmond was the first international university to achieve this dual accreditation.

The London Experience

As well as the excitement of living in one of the world's most lively and cosmopolitan cities, London offers spectacular resources and opportunities for learning outside the classroom. Richmond's courses also bring the life of the city - its people, institutions, politics, problems and history - into lectures and class projects. Add to all this an international faculty, flexible curriculum, small classes and campuses in two of London's most beautiful areas and you'll find Richmond a great place to earn your college degree.

Richmond Hill Campus

First and second-year students attend the Richmond Hill campus. The campus is set in a splendid six-acre site at the top of Richmond Hill, one of London's most sought-after areas. An impressive neo-Gothic building constructed in 1843 and a modern five-level library, house classrooms, and computer and science laboratories. The campus also accommodates student residences, a dining hall, student common room, and faculty and administrative offices.

Kensington Campus

Third-year, fourth-year and graduate students attend the city campus in Kensington, one of London's most beautiful residential areas. Its several buildings house classrooms, computing facilities, library, a dining hall and University offices. Students live in University buildings or live in off-campus housing of their choice. Within easy walking distance are the Royal Albert Hall, famous for its concerts, the Royal Colleges of Music and Art, Imperial College of Science and Technology, the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Natural History Museum, the Geological Museum and many cinemas, cafes, restaurants, clubs, and department stores.

London's extensive underground train network, called "the tube," links Richmond or Kensington and the rest of the city. Frequent rail service into Victoria, Paddington and Waterloo stations connects you tot he rest of the UK and to Europe through the Channel Tunnel between the UK and the Continent. Both Heathrow and Gatwick Airports are easily accessible.

The Kensington campus also hosts a number of visiting students from the United States and other countries who spend a semester or a year in London.
