About Lincoln
Lincoln is a beautiful, historic city located in the East Midlands region of England in the county of Lincolnshire.  With a population of just under 100,000, it is a medium-sized city that is student-friendly and offers plenty of attractions.  Lincoln is renowned for its mix of old and new.  The Lincoln Cathedral, at the top of Steep Hill in the city center, is considered one of the finest medieval buildings in Europe and for many centuries was the tallest building in Europe. Lincoln Castle, a short walk from Lincoln Cathedral, dates back to 1068.  In addition to historical buildings, houses and museums, Lincoln boast over 300 shops and restaurants as well as entertainment venues and numerous  parks and green spaces for leisure activities.

Accommodations
University accommodations include traditional residence halls and self-catering apartments and are conveniently located on Lincoln's Brayford Pool Campus or a short walking distance away.  There is currently more demand than available space in university housing, which can make it challenging for exchange students to secure accommodations.  Additionally, the majority of university housing is only available for a full academic year, but semester students may be able to obtain a room in The Gateway.  Exchange students who are unable to secure housing in university accommodations can seek off-campus housing in private apartments.
