About the university

Why students choose the University of East London

On the Docklands waterfront, with a highly international student body, strong sport science and psychology provision, and close links to east London employers.

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.
