How to get to Hull

Middle of nowhere? Wrong. Well, half-right. Because we are
slap-bang in the centre of the country, roughly halfway between
Edinburgh and London. So if you think about it, we’re actually
the perfect location. Close enough to the cities you’re familiar
with, far enough to get away from home and start gaining your
independence.

One campus,

Everything you need to live, study and socialise is on one safe
and beautiful campus, rather than being scattered around
the city. So there’ll be no early alarms, no waiting for buses, no
rushing across town to get to your lectures. Just more time for
living your best student life.
