Campus Summary

Kings English houses its students in Wavy Gate, a student accommodation residence a short distance from the city centre. Those wanting to be immersed right in city life may find Kings Oxford to be a little far out, at a 25 minute walk from the centre of Oxford. What it lacks in location, however, it more than makes up for in facilities. En-suite rooms, on-site laundry facilities, weekly cleaning services, a student common room and campus security all make for a comfortable base to explore the wider Oxford area.
