Program description  The University of Westminster is very conveniently located in the heart of central London. The university's location affords students a great way to study and easily explore all that London has to offer to any visitor. Students should note, however, that due to the location in the middle of this sprawling urban area, the university consists of several different campuses located in different areas of central London. It does not have the "self-contained environment" feel that many rural American campuses have. In fact, the main administrative building is right in the middle of a busy business district, and it could be easily mistaken for an office building if you didn't know better. For this reason, students attending Westminster should be prepared to commute to and from classes. All campuses and living units at Westminster are readily accessible by the London subway, referred to as the "Tube."
