UK STUDENT CITY 2026
We’re one of the UK’s top student cities* for so many reasons – how about we start with 10 of them?
1
BIG CITY, SMALL TOWN VIBES Our city centre is compact, easily walkable, and well connected by public transport.
3
WE’RE CHAMPIONS OF SPORT
2
A LEGENDARY NIGHT OUT We’re a place that loves to party, with more than 300 bars, a vibrant live music scene and club nights that go down in history.
You already know us for our Premier League pedigree, but Merseyside is much more than our three(!) professional clubs. We are home to a top rugby league team, an athletics club of Olympians, plus watersports centres, skateparks and much more in between.
4
HUGE FOOD SCENE Our culinary heritage runs deep - salt and pepper chips were literally invented in Liverpool. But if you still need to be convinced you’ll be spoilt for choice amongst our variety of food markets, thousands of restaurants, coffee roasteries, craft breweries and cafés galore.
Liverpool John Moores University | 9
5
A WORLD-CLASS WATERFRONT We’re famous for our breathtaking architecture, so much so that our Liver Birds are synonymous with the city – how many places can say that?
8
A STONE’S THROW FROM THE BEACH
6
ACCESSIBLE ARTS AND CULTURE From contemporary art to street art, national theatre productions to grassroots plays, plus more free museums, galleries and festivals than any UK city outside of London, Liverpool’s arts scene has always got something good going on.
Just a 30-minute train journey from the city centre we’ve got Crosby, Formby or Hilbre Island for spotting red squirrels, seals or just the ice cream van.
9 COMEDY LEGENDS We’ve got one of the most vibrant comedy scenes in the UK right now with clubs for big acts and emerging talent showing every night of the week. And with our famous scouse wit, is it any wonder?
10
A WARM WELCOME
7
MORE HERITAGE PARKS THAN ANY OTHER CITY OUTSIDE LONDON When you think of a city you might not think of green spaces – but in Liverpool we do both with more than 250 parks and green spaces across the city.
Ask someone about Liverpool and they’ll always mention the people, whether it’s our kindness, passion, energy or determination. Living in Liverpool – it means more.
10 | Liverpool John Moores University
OUR LOCATION
LIVERPOOL Whether it’s by train, car, boat or plane, you’ll find Liverpool accessible from almost anywhere. There are major motorway links to the M62, M57, M58 and M56 and all are within easy reach of the city centre and LJMU itself. Liverpool is well served by public transport too, with a mainline railway station (Liverpool Lime Street) located right in the city centre, a National Express coach station, a ferry terminal, an underground railway and Liverpool John Lennon Airport. In addition, there are two city centre bus stations, taxis are cheap and plentiful, and, if you need to go over the river, you can always take a ferry ’cross the Mersey.

During the International Foundation Year or International Year One programme, you will receive a conditional offer of a degree place at LJMU.

For more information, please visit: ljmu.ac.uk/isc
IFY/IY1/PMP pathway programmes The International Foundation Year (IFY), International Year One (IY1) and Pre-Masters programmes (PMP) not only help improve your English language skills further but focus on the academic knowledge you will need when you progress to the University.

Check the intakes of each programme too, as you can start your chosen course at different points throughout the year, depending on which best suits you.
IFY Progression routes LJMU specialise in Business, Law and Social Studies, as well as Engineering, Computing and Life Sciences. Once you have completed the International Foundation Year (IFY) and achieved the required grades, you can progress into

You can sleep sound knowing that LJMU guarantees all undergraduate students high-quality accommodation in the heart of Liverpool city centre as standard. LIVING IN UNIVERSITY ACCOMMODATION Our LJMU approved accommodation offers highquality, safe and comfortable accommodation in the heart of Liverpool city centre. All our accommodation has highspeed Wi-Fi, which will come in handy for both studying and streaming – and the majority is en-suite, with many having additional facilities as standard, like an on-site gym or parking. And did we mention that all our accommodation is within a short walk of our campuses – making rolling out of bed and into university easy (don’t tell our academics!).
HOW DOES ACCOMMODATION FINANCE WORK? All non-UK students will usually be required to pay for their accommodation in full before their arrival in the UK, unless they can provide a UK resident guarantor who is acceptable to the owner of their chosen accommodation.
SCAN
TO VIEW OUR INTERNATIONAL ACCOMMODATION GUIDE
However, students who choose to live at Atlantic Point or Marybone 1 can pay the cost for the year in two equal instalments – with 50% of the cost payable before arrival and 50% payable just after the Christmas break.
All tenancies in LJMU approved accommodation last the full academic year – so you won’t have to move your stuff back home at Christmas or Easter breaks – and if you find your home sweet home, you’re allowed to stay on after your first year!

Limelight is the newest hall available as it only fully opened in 2024. It offers premium en-suite accommodation with extensive communal facilities and great views across the city. Albert Court and Prospect Point are two excellent value, en-suite options which are suitable for students at either campus. Many rooms at Albert Court were upgraded in summer 2022 and now feature small double beds. Rooms at Prospect Point are larger than in many other halls. Agnes Jones House is an excellent choice for students seeking good value accommodation because it features flats with shared bathrooms. Grand Central is one of the liveliest of all the accommodation options, with two en-suite room options available. Copperas House is one of the newest options available, as it opened in summer 2021. It is well located close to the Student Life Building and LJMU Sport building and is suitable for students at either campus. St Luke’s View is an excellent option for students located in the Mount Pleasant campus, with large flats and a private courtyard space. Horizon Heights and Hardman House are two modern options within Mount Pleasant campus. All rooms at both sites feature en-suite bathrooms.
Grenville Street and The Arch are two contemporary options, located close to the vibrant student nightlife area and the shops and amenities of Liverpool One. Both halls have larger rooms than many others within the campus and hence they represent excellent value. Marybone is a large, three phase complex and is ideally located adjacent to the Avril Robarts Library and the Tithebarn Street building. Marybone 1 features flats with shared bathrooms and double beds at very reasonable rents. Marybone 2 and 3 are almost identical and are fully en-suite. Ablett House, Glassworks and Byrom Point are three newer accommodation sites located within the City Campus and are fully en-suite. They each have a common room and study area to meet and socialise with other residents. Atlantic Point is an excellent value en-suite option, located opposite the Byrom Street teaching buildings. It is one of the largest sites offered to new students and has a limited number of parking spaces.
