Excellence in the Capital Students on the Warwick Summer School in London will be taught by academics from one of the UK’s leading Universities, whilst living in the beautiful London suburb of Strawberry Hill. St Mary’s peaceful and self-contained campus is only 30 minutes from the heart of London, making this a unique “best of both worlds” experience.

In addition to the excellent academic courses, students will also enjoy lectures from inspirational guest speakers as well as a fun and engaging social programme.
