The area is comprised of several world-leading cultural treasures including famous museums such as the Science Museum, the Natural History Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Royal Colleges of Art and Music, the English National Ballet, the Royal Albert Hall, Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens and a huge range of fabulous shops.

History of ICL

Imperial College London can be traced back to the founding of the Royal College of Chemistry in 1845 in London.

It was granted its charter in 1907, merging the Royal College of Science and the Royal School of Mines. The charter also made provisions for ICL to become a college of the University of London, which it officially joined in 1908. The City & Guilds College joined ICL in 1910.

The 1980s and 1990s saw a string of mergers for the college starting in 1988 with St Mary’s Hospital Medical School under the Imperial College Act 1988. This made St Mary’s a constituent college and amendments to the royal charter brought about a change of name to the Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine.

This was followed by mergers with the National Heart and Lung Institute (in 1995) and the Charing Cross and Westminster Medical School, Royal Postgraduate Medical School, and the Institute of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (in 1997).

In 2003, the institution was granted degree-awarding status in its own right by the Privy Council. A year later, the UK Energy Research Centre was established. Also, the Imperial College Business School and a new main entrance on Exhibition Road were opened by Queen Elizabeth II that same year.

In July 2007, Imperial College London left the University of London and became a fully independent institution.

Frequently asked questions about student accommodation near Imperial College London

Why should I live in private student accommodation instead of student dorms?

Living in private, off-campus accommodation has many benefits. You can choose to live in any part of London you like, whether you want to live near the ICL campus, in the city centre or in a particular area of the city you like. You can also choose between shared and private rooms, depending on what you like and what is the right budget for you.

Many modern purpose-built student accommodations (PBSAs) also offer great amenities to their inhabitants. If you want to make new friends, that’s going to be easy in the PBSAs that offer things like their own games rooms, lounges and in-house gyms.
