Our University

The campus of The University of Western Ontario is located in London, a thriving Ontario centre of more than 352,000 that combines the facilities of big-city living with the comforts of a small-town community. The campus itself offers numerous conveniences right within its gates. From any of the residences, you’re only a short walk to a bank, general store, medical clinic, pharmacy, gyms, a pool and other recreational facilities, a book store, eating and drinking establishments, a post office, films, live theatre, two art galleries, and a wide variety of student services.
