Our students find that Edinburgh is a welcoming city that offers an unrivalled quality of life, boasting all the attractions expected of a capital. It is also friendly, safe and easy to travel around.
Every summer, the city hosts the world-famous Edinburgh International Festival and the Festival Fringe.
Throughout the year, the city maintains a vibrant cultural life, with museums, galleries, theatres and concert halls providing a colourful array of events to suit a wide range of tastes. Edinburgh also has modern facilities for all sports, including a number of excellent public golf courses. Scotland’s highlands and islands, with their rugged coastlines, mountains, lochs and glens, are waiting to be explored. Scotland provides many opportunities for outdoor pursuits, from hill-walking and salmon fishing in the summer, to skiing and snowboarding in the winter.
