Any program can get you to a country and register you at a university. It takes a certain kind of program, however, to provide you with all the tools necessary to ensure that your experience is both memorable and fulfilling. That's why ASA provides our England students with:

• Housing on your UK campus, in the Halls of Residence
• Guided excursions to other cities within England
• Personal attention to any academic goals you may have
• Health insurance
• A cell phone with free incoming calls when you're in the UK
• And much, much more!

Being Prepared

We understand that being prepared is important to a successful experience. That's why our team has labored over the years to refine our programs. We help you prepare with:

- a detailed orientation guide mailed to you prior to departure that will prepare you for studying abroad in the UK
- a detailed on-site orientation program when you arrive in your host country
- an experienced staff willing to answer all of your questions

Seeing The Country

Our excursions are designed to help you see some of the major historical and cultural sites of England. At many of the sites you will have a guided tour, yet will also be left with plenty of time to explore on your own. We have both day trips to different sites, as well as overnight stays at some of the further locations (overnight trips included with London semester programs only). All of the excursions are included in the cost of the program, including the cost of the hotel and transportation. While we encourage our students to participate in all of the excursions, it is never a requirement.

Classes and Housing

ASA London students reside and take classes at Regent's College, located inside Regent's Park in central London, or at London South Bank University, located in central London in the Southwark neighborhood. Regent's attracts students from all over the world, which means that you will not only get to see English life firsthand, but will get to meet and hang out with other students from all walks of life. The classes at Regent's are small and are taught by full professors, not teaching assistants. Our students can take classes in a wide variety of subjects.

London South Bank University students get to integrate into a major public British university, allowing them the opportunity to be fully immersed into British culture. With a large variety of classes to choose from, especially in Engineering, this is the perfect campus for those who want to experience life as a British college student.

ASA Oxford students reside and take classes at Oxford Brookes University, which was ranked "Leading Modern University" in England in the 2006 Sunday Times University Guide. Students have the opportunity to take classes in an extraordinarily wide range of subject areas, with both British students and international students from all over the world, while living in one of the world's most ancient and picturesque university towns.

The ASA Staff

The ASA team is a group of people who are well-traveled, experienced in foreign education, always there to assist you and best of all, they are people who have studied abroad themselves. We know what it's like to move into a new city, in a new country, with a new language and it's this first-hand experience that makes us true professionals when it comes to studying abroad.

We want to see all of our students leave our program feeling that they have had the best experience of their lives. For some of our students, this will be their first time outside of the United States and their first exposure to a new culture. We recognize that this is not always an easy adjustment, so our orientations are designed to help take away some of the surprise and guesswork that often leads to anxiety. No question or request is too small, so please, call us toll-free at (888) 845-4ASA with any question that you may have. We look forward to speaking with you soon!
