Medical services
As a student, UCA is committed to make sure you are sufficiently supported and protected, from ensuring that you use our specialist facilities safely to providing a wellbeing and counselling service.
Students can register with a doctor (GP) locally, and UCA has local guides for each campus that include a list of hospitals and GPs if you need medical attention.
Campus life
The campuses are located across the Southeast of England in Surrey and Kent, all within easy reach of London by public transport, allowing students to take advantage of everything that the city has to offer.
Each campus has a diverse range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, and nightlife, ensuring that you have easy access to everything you need. If you need to refuel between study sessions or want a coffee with friends, you can do so in our on-site canteens.
Student bars can be found on the Farnham and Canterbury campuses. All campuses have exhibition spaces displaying work by students and external artists.
CCTV Surveillance is available at all campuses and halls of residence to ensure safety and security.
Sports facilities
Students can use the university's extensive indoor and outdoor sports facilities, which include dance/fitness studios, artificial pitches, and tennis courts.
In addition to providing fitness facilities to students, the sports clubs at the university student union participate in a variety of championships and sporting events.
Student clubs
There are numerous clubs and societies available to students, covering a wide range of interests from K-pop dance and yoga to animation and martial arts; there is something for everyone. Participating is a great way to meet people with similar interests, and students are encouraged and supported to join existing clubs and societies or to start new ones.
Clubs and societies usually run Monday to Friday after 5pm, and throughout the year, amazing performances such as the Musical Theatre Society's end-of-year stage production and the dance Charity Showcase can be expected. Students can join societies during Freshers Week or through the UCA Students’ Union (UCASU) website.
