London Guildhall University: the applicant's brief

6 findings

The short answer

London Guildhall University was a public university in the United Kingdom that existed from 1992 to 2002 and later merged into London Metropolitan University. It suits anyone researching a former UK institution rather than a university you can currently apply to.
What you can study

The university is no longer operating, so there is no current study programme to apply for there. It was established from the City of London Polytechnic and later became part of London Metropolitan University; for current study options, check London Metropolitan University instead.
Getting in

There is no current admissions route because the university no longer exists as an independent institution. If you are looking at its successor, confirm application requirements, entry conditions, and deadlines directly with London Metropolitan University.
What it costs

The university does not publish a current fee because it is no longer operating. For present-day costs, confirm tuition and living expenses with the admissions office of London Metropolitan University and check the current visa and accommodation costs separately.
Coming from abroad

The language of instruction is not published. Before applying anywhere connected to this former institution, confirm the programme language, entry requirements, visa steps, housing, and recognition of qualifications with the current university.
How it compares

The United Kingdom has 193 universities, and London Guildhall University was one of the country’s former public institutions rather than a current option. Its main relevance now is historical, and its premises became part of London Metropolitan University’s City campus after the merger in 2002.

Written from this university's catalogue entry and its cited encyclopedia summary. Figures are only shown where the institution or a cited source publishes them — always confirm fees and entry requirements with the university itself before applying.
