London named best city in the world for university students

London has just been named as the best city in the world for university students, according to new international rankings, the QS Best Student Cities Ranking 2018. 

Climbing two places from last year’s cities ranking, London is now the top student city in the world. Home to several leading universities, the city has been a student favorite for years and performed particularly well in the student survey.

The student perspective or ‘student view’ is just one of the indicators used to compile this ranking. More information about the others can be found here.

In response to these findings, Professor John Annette, President  and Vice Chancellor of Richmond, the American International University in London, commented:

“We’re delighted to see these results. The students based at our two London campuses in Richmond and Kensington consistently tell us how highly they rate both the University and London as a great place to study and live.  We hope these results will encourage even more students to apply to Richmond, the American International University in London.”
