About Roehampton University

Roehampton University is one of the most modern universities in UK, located in Roehampton Lane, a small friendly town in London. Its history runs back to 1841 where the oldest constituent college was established. The Roehampton University, most commonly known as the RU, was established in 1975, when four highly recognized 19th century training colleges; Digby Stuart College, Froebel College, Southlands College and Whitelands College formed a federation. For the first 10 years, RU's courses were validated by the University of London, however in 1984, RU broke off the partnership. They then established links with the University of Surrey. However in 2004, following its successful application for an Independent University title, the name was changed from University of Surrey Roehampton to Roehampton University.
