Exchange students

Study at Leeds Trinity University for a semester or a year and become part of our friendly and supportive community on campus in Yorkshire.

We have agreements with a number of universities worldwide.

Our size means we know each of our international students by name, helping you feel at home from the moment you arrive. You’ll get a taste of British culture and be part of the friendly and supportive community on campus just like any other student.

Leeds has been voted the best student city in the UK several times and is also an excellent base for visits to London, Liverpool or Edinburgh, while the natural beauty of Yorkshire Dales National Park is at your doorstep.

What can I study?

Incoming exchange students can pick and mix units from all subject areas, so you have a variety of modules to choose from.

All nominated exchange students will be emailed a copy of modules available for Study Abroad from the Study Abroad team.
