Housing in London
Most students studying in the London program choose to stay in the Worrell House which is owned by Wake Forest University. However, students are welcome to find their own housing in nearby areas.
Worrell House is situated in a beautiful spot in Hampstead, north of central London and 20 minutes by bus or Tube. Students enjoy the large garden and the kitchen, among other amenities. Shopping and restaurants are close by. Worrell House can accommodate 14 students and the faculty director. Classes are held at Worrell House unless a field trip has been scheduled. Space is limited; if you apply after the house is full, we will put you on a housing waitlist. Wake Forest can help students find appropriate accommodations elsewhere, if necessary.
