Student Life

The City of Aberdeen is an attractive, prosperous and friendly community of about 220,000 people.  With a student population of over 20,000, Aberdeen has lots to offer in the way of entertainment and caters for all tastes in arts, culture and leisure.

Aberdeen is Scotland's third largest city and the cultural centre of the north-east of Scotland, it is big enough for the "big city" experience but student friendly Aberdeen is compact enough to make it easy to find your way around and make friends. 

Students describe Aberdeen as having an unrivalled social scene, which caters for all tastes in arts, culture, leisure and entertainment. Communication and travel links are excellent, which means getting around the rest of Scotland and the UK is easy.

On Campus, we have our revolutionary Hub that is full of cool and funky places to eat, drink, shop and hang out. Its shiny and new. A place for Students to kick back and relax, catch up with news and music on the plasma screens or just meet friends in a cosmopolitan environment.

The city of Aberdeen truly has something for everyone - from the bustling city centre of Europe's energy capital to the superb countryside and coastline in an area rich in historic and natural interest.
