The Location
The People’s College is situated
in the heart of Nottingham, a vibrant, cosmopolitan
city in the centre of England. The city welcomes a
large number of international students each year.
Many are attracted by the reputation of its colleges
and its two universities. International students also
find that it is much cheaper to study and live in
Nottingham than in London. There are excellent air,
rail and road links to London and the rest of the
country. The city is a great base for any overseas
visitor planning to explore UK. For more information

The People’s College was established
in 1846. It offers courses for students aged over

friendly atmosphere attracting students from a wide
range of backgrounds and cultures. There are over
2000 full time students, including 250 international

new friends, not just from the UK but from countries
worldwide.
The College is an official UK state
