Explore our South Kensington Campus with a school group visit and learn about what it’s like to study at Imperial College London.  

These visits usually include a guided-campus tour with a current student, and subject to availability, a general presentation led by a member of the Student Recruitment Team.  

Make a visit request

Campus visits for school groups take place on weekdays during office hours, typically between 10.00 and 16.00. They are subject to the availability of staff and student ambassadors.  

We welcome visit requests for students in UK school years 11 to 13, or international equivalent, (aged 15-18). Due to capacity on campus, we will not be able to accommodate groups of more than 40. 

Please submit requests at least four weeks in advance to give the best possibility for us to accommodate your group. We aim to respond to all visit requests within 3 working days. 

Requests are submitted by email. Please include your group name in the subject line, and include the following information: 

  • School name and location
  • Year group/age of students
  • Group size
  • Qualifications studied (e.g. A-level, IB, etc.)
  • Preferred dates and times

English language proficiency

Our school visits are conducted in English, and we are unable to provide translators. 

To make the most of the visit, students should have a high level of proficiency in English due to the higher education and technical terminology used during tours and presentations. 

Further information

Imperial College London is a specialist university, focusing on science, engineering, medicine and business at undergraduate level. 

Due to the number of requests for visits we receive each year, we are only able to offer visits to schools, colleges and universities with students interested in these subject areas – see the full list of undergraduate courses that we offer. 

Unfortunately, we cannot provide tours of teaching facilities, the library, or accommodation, or organise lectures and lab taster sessions.  

We are not able to offer tours or presentations for independent tour groups or agencies.
