We believe in the life changing opportunities knowledge can create. Since 1885 we’ve been creating access to knowledge for those who may not have had the opportunity to before.
We’re proud of our successes
The effect we have has a far-reaching impact, not just for those who come to study here, but for those who work, invest in, and live in our local communities too.
So if you’ve ever wondered if one person can make a difference, simply speak to our alumni, students and helpful staff.
Because for all of us education isn’t about how much you take in. It’s about what you take out into the world.

We put student experience at the heart of every decision we make. Our awards reflect the hard work of the whole Edge Hill University community and our dedication to delivering excellence.
But don’t just take our word for it.
The Modern University of the Year accolade is rooted in our culture and campus. Where we are inspirational in our thinking and exceptional in our student experience. We believe in combining quality teaching with future-focused courses that are designed to empower. Equipping each student with the skills they need to thrive.
Investment, innovation and a continued commitment to delivering an exceptional student experience saw us top the charts at the Educate North Awards ’20/21. We have shown exceptional progress over the past 12 months, but the hard work doesn’t stop now. 这仅仅是开始.
