Student Life

Welcome to the Harlaxton Manor Section of the Harlaxton College web-site. Harlaxton College is the British campus of the University of Evansville in Indiana, USA, and we are—to state it simply and directly—one of the finest study-abroad campuses anywhere in the world.

Student life at Harlaxton is an integral part of the Harlaxton Experience. We offer many opportunities for student involvement through Student Government and other student groups interested in planning an event. The Student Development staff strives to support students by providing opportunities for the enhancement of academic, cultural, social, and recreational aspects of student life. Every Harlaxton student has the opportunity to become involved on campus.

The pages in this section of the web site should give you an idea of what life is like at Harlaxton although, we have to say, there is nothing like the real thing!

The Daily Life at Harlaxton page uses blogs and galleries to 'paint a picture' of daily life at Harlaxton.
