Study in England at

Trinity and All Saints University College

Trinity and All Saints University College

Trinity and All Saints opened in 1966 as two colleges on a single site and has been offering degrees from the university of Leeds since 1974. In 1980 the colleges formally merged into a single institution and in 1991 it was designated a full college of the University of Leeds. TAS is located on a large and attractive campus in Brownberrie Lane, close to the Leeds and Bradford airport and the Horsforth train station.

The Cities of Leeds and Bradford

TAS is six miles from the center of Leeds, on the edge of the Yorkshire dales, and the Bradford City Center is just a few miles away. Both cities offer a full range of cultural, sporting and social events. Leeds is e home of Opera North and has its own art gallery, museums and libraries. The National Museum of Photography and film in Bradford is of particular interest to students interested in media studies. Numerous amateur dramatic and musical groups flourish in the area and there are many opportunities for students to participate in sports and other recreational activities.

Educational Programs and Facilities

While the main academic focus for the exchange program is with the Professional School of Media and Communications, there are additional courses offered in a variety of disciplines including humanities, management, modern languages, social sciences, technology and mathematics. There are approximately 2,000 full time students and 2,000 part time students which means that the College is small enough for the faculty, staff and students to enjoy a friendly community atmosphere. There are nine residence halls on the campus with single-study rooms. The Student Union offers numerous on-campus services, including all aspects of students welfare, and supports twenty-four clubs and societies which cater to students' interests from sports to performing arts. The Recreational and Cultural Committee organizes leisure courses and live performances within the College in the evening and at lunchtime. Programs include recitals, jazz, mime and professional theater.

Exchange Program Periods - Fall or Spring Semesters or Academic Year

Generally, the fall term begins in mid September. An orientation program at TAS precedes each semester. The second term begins in January and there is a two to three week vacation during the Easter holidays. Students finish their courses by the end of May or early June.

Credits

Students are expected to enroll in the equivalent of 12-15 hours of course work per semester or 24-30 for the academic year.

Housing

Students will be housed in the residence halls of the TAS campus.
