About the university

Why students choose Keele University

A campus university in Staffordshire set in 600 acres of parkland, one of the largest campuses in the UK. Known for medicine, pharmacy and its distinctive dual-honours degree structure.

Both direct entry and foundation or pathway routes are available here. If your grades or English score fall short of direct admission, the pathway route is a genuine alternative to waiting a year.

Tuition, entry requirements and intake dates differ by programme and change each year. Ask us for the current figures for the course you are considering rather than relying on published averages.
