Students in the Community

Community When you move to Worcester, you become a resident in the local community.  Please ensure that the impact you have on your community is a positive one.  Private-rented student houses and the St John's campus itself are conveniently placed in central residential areas.  The area is home to a diverse culture, and a mixture of family and single professional housing, as well as the student houses and halls of residences.

The University is committed to the local community in ensuring that the growing student population continues to live harmoniously with local residents and we encourage our students to behave in a positive and considerate manner. 

The Student Community Wellbeing Service Manager works in close collaboration with the Local Policing Team to ensure that Worcester community continues to be a safe and welcoming environment for students to live in.
