Royal Holloway has two campuses, each offering a fantastic student experience. Our Egham campus is set in 135 acres of stunning parkland, with the chateau-inspired Grade-I listed Founder’s Building at its heart. We also have a campus in the vibrant Bloomsbury area of central London. Wherever you’re based, you’ll be welcomed into our supportive and close-knit community.
Research students are encouraged to get stuck in and take advantage of everything on offer at the university - from the many student-led cubs and societies to our extensive wellbeing support, including counselling, financial advice and disability and neurodiversity support.
We have almost everything you need for daily life on our Egham campus: a gym, pubs and cafes, a shop for all your food and essentials, a cinema club, and an NHS GP surgery. Plus, you’ll get lots of discounts for services in nearby Egham and Englefield Green. There are many peaceful spaces for studying or relaxing, and we’re close to beautiful Windsor Great Park, historic Runnymede, and the towns of Windsor, Staines-upon-Thames, and Richmond, where you’ll find plenty of shops and entertainment. It’s a 40-minute train ride to London Waterloo and just seven miles from Heathrow airport.
Our central London campus is in the heart of the capital, with easy access to museums, night life, theatres and cultural entertainment. Royal Holloway is part of the University of London, so you’ll have access to world-class resources, such as the renowned Senate House Library.
