University profile
City St George's, University of London was formed on 1 August 2024 by the merger of City, University of London and St George's, University of London. It educates more than 27,000 students from over 170 countries and is one of the largest higher education destinations for London students and one of the most significant suppliers of the health workforce in the capital. The Lord Mayor of London is the University's Rector, a link marked each year in events such as the Lord Mayor's Show.
Teaching takes place across three London campuses: Clerkenwell (Northampton Square, EC1V 0HB), Moorgate (Bunhill Row and 33 Finsbury Square, home of Bayes Business School) and Tooting (Cranmer Terrace, SW17 0RE), where health and medical education has been based since the move from Hyde Park Corner in 1980.
Academic work is organised in six Schools:
The merger joins St George's long specialism in health and medicine with City's breadth in business, law, communications, policy and global affairs, and science and technology, with interdisciplinary work in treatment, population health monitoring, workforce development, policy and advocacy. The City Law School was the first in the UK to deliver all stages of legal education, and Bayes Business School has taught business for over 50 years. Professional bodies help shape many courses and facilities, giving access to work experience.
Around half of all students come from outside the UK. Students have four libraries (around 250,000 printed books, over 25,000 online journal titles and over 1,600 study places), the CitySport fitness centre at Clerkenwell, and eight residential halls for undergraduates and postgraduates near the Clerkenwell and Tooting campuses. The alumni community numbers 175,000 in over 170 countries, including John Hunter, Edward Jenner, Henry Gray and Patrick Steptoe.
The legacy City joined the University of London in 2016, while St George's medical school joined in 1836. The merged institution is a member of the University of London and runs under a dual-running model, so some services still carry legacy City or St George's names.
The undergraduate fee for UK students starting in 2025/26 is £9,535 for the first year of study, and fees in later years may rise in line with government policy. Fees for international students and for all postgraduate courses vary by course. Eligible postgraduates can borrow up to £11,836 through the government master's loan, and PhD students up to £27,892 over three years through the doctoral loan.
A non-repayable bursary for students ordinarily resident in England from lower-income households on their first higher education course, paid on top of student finance. There is no separate application: eligibility is assessed from the Student Finance England application, so students must agree to share household income details. The 2024/25 rates were £1,700 in the first year and £1,000 in later years (household income £0–£16,000), £1,250 and £500 (£16,001–£25,000), and £750 and £500 (£25,001–£30,000). Care leavers receive the maximum award. From the 2026/27 intake the grant will be combined across all campuses, with changed eligibility and values. Grants and bursaries.

View scholarships for City St George's, University of London →All undergraduate applications, from UK and international students alike, are made through UCAS. After the main UCAS deadline in January, applicants may still be able to apply through UCAS Extra. The general minimum requirement is passes in two subjects at GCE A-level or equivalent, and a wide range of equivalent qualifications is accepted. Each course sets its own requirements, which may be higher, and applicants must also be accepted by the course admissions tutor. Many courses are competitive, so meeting the minimum does not guarantee admission. Typical offers are set course by course.
A contextual admissions scheme is open to UK (Home fee) undergraduate applicants taking certain qualifications who meet the criteria. Eligible applicants may receive a conditional offer with reduced entry requirements. Separate contextual admissions policies apply to Clerkenwell and Moorgate courses and to Tooting courses.
Some School of Health & Medical Sciences courses hold selection days or interviews as part of the application process. Courses in this School may also require occupational health checks, an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check and references.
Country-by-country equivalences to GCE A-level grades (for undergraduate entry) and to UK honours degrees (for postgraduate entry) are set out on the entry requirements page. International foundation routes include the City St George's International Study Centre and Kaplan International College London, and pre-master's programmes from Kaplan International College London and INTO City, University of London are recognised.
Nationals of majority English-speaking countries, and applicants who completed a degree in one, do not need to prove their English. For other applicants, Clerkenwell and Moorgate courses set an IELTS level on each course page, from IELTS 5.5 to 7.0 depending on the course. IELTS Academic (including IELTS Online and One Skill Retake), PTE Academic (not the online version; equivalents of 54, 60, 62 and 69 for IELTS 5.5, 6.0, 6.5 and 7.0), TOEFL iBT (in-person and Home Edition, not MyBest scores), Cambridge Advanced and Proficiency, and LanguageCert tests are accepted. Student visa applicants taking PTE need at least 59 in all four subtests. Tests must be taken no more than two years before the CAS is issued. Tooting campus courses use their own three-group system, which also accepts professional registration or a suitable academic qualification, and English tests must be dated within two years of the course start date.
Applicants should normally hold a UK honours degree or equivalent in a relevant subject. Applicants with suitable experience or professional qualifications may be considered at the department's discretion. Most applications go directly to the University through its online system, with links on each course page. Most courses have no fixed deadline and admit on a rolling basis until full. Final-year students and those awaiting English test results can apply and may receive conditional offers. Decisions normally take two to six weeks, and most offers require a non-refundable deposit that counts towards tuition fees.
Applicants should explore staff research interests, contact a potential supervisor and develop a research proposal before applying formally. Each research programme sets its own application deadline. Funded studentships and Research Council doctoral training partnership places are available.
International students needing a Student visa must show their English proficiency as part of the visa application. The University provides free, confidential immigration advice to international students.
Residential halls: eight halls in all. Undergraduates can choose Arbour House (5 minutes' walk to Clerkenwell), Cross Court House (7 minutes), The Garden Halls (10 minutes), Romano Court (12 minutes) or Horton Halls (20 minutes' walk to Tooting). Postgraduates can choose iQ City (9 minutes' walk to Clerkenwell), Alliance House or Eleanor Rosa House.
