Host City Description

London is one of the undisputedly great cities in the world and a phenomenal location for study abroad. It is hard to have enough hours in the day to manage everything that London has to offer outside of the classroom: world-class museums, art, cinema, theater and architecture, energetic politics and culture and fantastic restaurants and nightlife.
