About the Scholarship Provider:
Royal Holloway, University of London is recognized as one of the top 251 institutions in the United Kingdom and one of the top 302 universities in the United Kingdom. This demonstrates the university’s prominence in the international community. Our community encourages the intellectual, social, and personal development of its members by virtue of the world-class research that we carry out at Royal Holloway with the intention of enlarging horizons and enhancing quality of life, the zealousness of our faculty members, and the overarching philosophy that permeates the Royal Holloway experience as a whole. In addition, when it comes to undertaking research that is considered to be “world-leading” or “internationally outstanding,” Royal Holloway University is ranked in the top 25 percent of universities located in the United Kingdom (REF 2014). If you decide to join Royal Holloway University, you will have the chance to do your schoolwork on a campus that is widely regarded as being among the most beautiful in all of the world. Students at Royal Holloway have easy access to London, which is frequently recognized as one of the top student cities in the world, and the campus environment at Royal Holloway is one that is kind and inclusive. Students at Royal Holloway are able to have an experience that is described as having the “best of both worlds” because the university is located on the outskirts of London.
Two social reformers who passionately believed in the necessity for inclusiveness and excellence were the driving reasons for the establishment of the university. They believed that excellence and inclusion should go hand in hand. In this day and age, their vision is more important than it has ever been. The University, which is recognized as one of the most significant and research-intensive universities in the United Kingdom, is home to a number of the most well-known authorities in a variety of subjects, including the arts and sciences, business and economics, and the legal system. Since Royal Holloway also stands to benefit from diversity, the university actively recruits students and faculty members from all over the world in the hope that they would choose to pursue their education and careers here. This guarantees that the educational institution will continue to uphold a worldwide and multi-cultural outlook on the campus.
Students at Royal Holloway International have the opportunity to take English language classes during the academic term. The classes are designed to improve students’ academic self-confidence by increasing their level of proficiency with the English language. The Overseas Student Support service is made up of a dedicated group of people who offer aid and direction to overseas students as soon as they arrive in the United Kingdom. This service is provided by the Overseas Student Support group. Student Support is there to help you at any point during the academic year, and they will even pick you up from the airport for free if they are the ones who are helping you. In the event that they submit their applications before the deadline, first-year students and international students will be granted preference for one of the approximately 3,000 open spaces in the residential halls. Elegant surroundings may be found in both the freshly renovated Victorian Founder’s Building as well as the more modern Williamson, Tyke & Butler Building, which has been occupied since it first opened its doors in 2007.
In addition to rooms with private bathrooms, rooms with shared bathrooms, rooms with catered meals, and rooms where guests are responsible for their own meals, there are also possibilities for shared accommodations. While students are staying in any given residence hall, they will have access to a trained team of residential, operational, and maintenance support employees who are there to assist them. These professionals are meant to ensure the smooth running of the building. The Royal Holloway campus at Egham, which has a total size of 135 acres and is situated on the outskirts of London, may be found between Windsor and Heathrow. The town can be accessed on foot in a matter of minutes and offers a diverse offering of retail establishments, watering holes, and dining options. It will take you about 35 minutes on the train to go to the school from the center of London, and Windsor is not too far away either.
On the one hand, the campus is friendly and unhurried, yet on the other hand, it is constantly alive with activity and teeming with people. According to an article published by The Independent, Royal Holloway is “well-known for its friendly and helpful environment.” The significant bulk of the educational and social activities take place on the historic campus, which is universally acknowledged as being among the most beautiful campuses in the world. Students like the cozy atmosphere that is generated by the relatively small student body, which consists of just a little bit more than 9000 individuals in total. Because of the university’s convenient location just 40 minutes (by train) outside of the city, students at Royal Holloway, University of London will have the opportunity to study in London while also having access to the thriving city of Egham, Surrey. This is made possible by the university’s proximity to the city center. Students will have easy access to everything that London has to offer while living in a traditional English village that has a strong feeling of community and is located close to the city itself.
