If you're looking for a general introduction to London Met, or you're thinking about studying here, take a look at our course listings, events and latest news.
For businesses, we offer a range of business services to connect you with our students and support your work, as well as venue hire for events. For students, we go the extra mile with our investment.

The University's academic structure is made up of six schools. Each course is aligned to one of these schools, and if you're a prospective London Metropolitan University student you can find out which school your course is managed under by checking the relevant course page.
Students studying in any of our schools have access to all our communal facilities (such as libraries, social spaces, cafés and eateries), and each school also has areas of expertise which might mean you use specialist resources as part of your course. Our schools have links to relevant businesses in sectors related to their specialist subject areas, and the schools are also hotbeds of research undertaken by University academics and PhD students.
Welcome to our accommodation information site. Coming to the University and living in a major city like London is an exciting prospect and it's important to find somewhere safe, affordable and comfortable to live. We aim to give you a comprehensive guide to student housing in London, including:
For specific questions, refer to our contact page for telephone, email and address details. If you'd prefer to talk to someone in person, we have a drop-in service Monday to Friday at both the Aldgate and Holloway Hubs, 9.30am until 12.30pm (last drop-in entry at 12.10), and on Tuesday and Wednesday at the Moorgate Hub.
Drop-ins are a first-come first seen service, with each drop-in lasting a maximum of 20 minutes. As advisers can only see a certain number of students during each drop-in session, it is advisable to arrive as early as possible. If you arrive late or the maximum number of students has been seen, you will be referred to the next drop-in session.
At London Metropolitan University we have excellent facilities to help you keep active and get fit. We run an extensive programme of fitness classes and have a modern gym with state-of-the-art cardiovascular equipment. Our sports facilities include a full-sized basketball court, complete with scoreboard, and a dance studio. We offer a generous membership package that includes access to unlimited classes and the use of both gyms.
Take part in a fun-filled programme of fitness classes running throughout the week. Open to students, staff and the public.
The gym inside our Science Centre in Holloway provides affordable membership for students, staff and the public. Students have the opportunity to join a sports team. If competitive sport isn't your thing, students, staff and the public can join recreational sport classes. Under fully qualified supervision our final year BSc and MSc Sports Therapy students offer a range of competitively priced services.
We have a team of qualified sports scientists available to give comprehensive advice on all aspects of training and fitness. London Met's libraries have a wide range of books, journals and other online resources, various study rooms and zones, and well-trained staff to support you throughout your studies.
Our libraries have over 305,000 books, 55,000 e-books and 43,000 e-journals for you to use. As well as reading for study we have a popular reading-for-pleasure collection. Research shows that reading for pleasure can help student achievement. As a London Met student you'll be able to use our online catalogue to search or browse our collections. If you need help locating items in our collections, our staff at the library information desks will be happy to help.
While studying at London Met you will have access to our special collections, which include the Trades Union Congress Library archive. We're also members of The Society of College, National and University Libraries (SCONUL) Access Scheme, which allows our students and staff to use the libraries of other universities with the same membership.
Our two libraries support students and staff in the University's six academic schools. Our opening hours are easily accessible and you'll be able to pay us a visit during these times to access our range of resources. Our e-resources are also available 24/7, on and off campus.
Study spaces within the libraries are divided into zones for group and silent study. Our libraries also have bookable group study rooms with projection facilities, technobooths with large screens, plenty of fixed computers (PCs and Macs) and Wi-Fi. Students can borrow a laptop for up to four hours for use on or off site.
Aldgate Library also provides a photography and drawing room as well as a superb materials and products collection for designers. Our professional academic liaison librarians will be available to guide and advise you when you're looking for study and research materials for your work. They facilitate access to specialised databases as well as provide research skills training. Academic liaison librarians will provide you with information literacy skills, and the competences and knowledge you'll need to study and research effectively. This will help you achieve your academic potential as well as aiding your employability.

The most disgusting experience in my life!
Definitely I don’t recommend this university to anyone.
They are interested into the fees and nothing else!
Most of the tutors I have met were very basic and old fashioned understanding...
By Ivo Georgakiev (Apr, 2018) |
Did my masters degree in marketing here in 2010. Tutor time for my entire dissertation was less than one hour! Worst education money can buy. You’re on your own, lecturers couldn’t care less. One tutor stood out and was amazing, he left the university now.

I am currently studying for a BSc in Health and social care at LondonMet, I have to say I really love the vibe of this University. It has been a very positive experience so far, the Lecturers are the best I have ever come across their true academics, with an incredible amount of knowledge and experience in the field of their subjects. Great environment and great students who are all so friendly and welcoming, I have no regrets about coming to this University, I have progressed greatly and I already know so much more about my course, I have more confidence in my abilities as a result. Well done London Met for being a truly modern supportive and vibrant University, enroll you will not regret it.

I am currently studying at London Met for my BSc in Health and social care, I have to say overall I am highly impressed with the Tutor's and how qualified and professional they all are. I have been impressed by the whole running of the University and I have had a very smooth start which I am grateful for. It is however a massive building and I am still getting lost, but slowly over time I am improving each day and navigating my way round nicely.
