Our Services

University Overview

Liverpool Hope University holds a distinction unique in Europe: its foundation is jointly Anglican and Catholic. Three teacher training colleges lie behind it, the earliest of them founded in 1844, and in 1979 they merged to form the Liverpool Institute of Higher Education. The institution was renamed Liverpool Hope University College in 1995, secured full university status in 2005 and was given the power to award research degrees in 2009. Hope Street, which runs between the city's two cathedrals, supplies the name, and graduation ceremonies take place in each cathedral in turn.

Hope Park, the principal campus, lies in the suburb of Childwall roughly four miles from central Liverpool, where teaching buildings from several eras stand alongside a student village. Under a mile from Lime Street station, the Creative Campus, located on Shaw Street in Everton, accommodates its School of Creative and Performing Arts along with theatres, a recording studio, a fabrication lab and dance studios. Some 5,000 students are enrolled in subjects spanning education, the arts and humanities, law, business, computing, health and the social sciences. Hope belongs to the Cathedrals Group, an association of universities founded by churches.

Information for International Students

International students at Liverpool Hope turn first to the Global Student and Partnership Centre, which runs drop-in help with everyday tasks such as setting up a bank account or signing up with a doctor. Offer holders are taken through the visa process by the International Admissions Team, and a CAS may be issued as much as three months ahead of the course start date. Most undergraduate programmes require IELTS 6.0 overall and at least 5.5 in each component. For those who need academic preparation, the Liverpool Hope International Study Centre, based on the Hope Park campus and run by Malvern International, provides a Pre-Master's Programme, International Year One and an International Foundation Programme. Oxford International Digital Institute delivers an online pre-sessional English course lasting six, twelve or sixteen weeks.

On-campus accommodation is guaranteed to every first-year student. Orientation sessions for new international students take place in the week preceding the start of teaching, and each student attends a visa compliance interview once they have arrived. Various international scholarships are offered, and the Graduate Route is open to eligible graduates.

Intake Information

Intake information is provided as a general guide. Start dates vary between universities and courses, and not every course is offered at every intake. Please follow the UCAS deadlines for undergraduate applications and check the latest dates on the official Liverpool Hope University website.

Frequently Asked Questions

UK universities typically require international students who are under 18 when they enrol to have a UK-based nominated guardian in place. The guardian acts on behalf of the parents while the student is a minor, serving as the university's point of contact in an emergency, supporting the student's welfare and providing a trusted adult close by. British Guardianship provides this as a fully accredited university guardianship service.

We have guardians available and ready to be assigned. The overall timeframe depends on how quickly the required paperwork is completed and communication with Liverpool Hope University is finalised. As every case is different, timelines can vary, but we aim to make the process as smooth and efficient as possible.

Our UK university guardianship services for Liverpool Hope University start from £250 per term. We also offer premium and bespoke packages, and with our flexible guardianship services you only pay for the services you need. Full details are on our guardianship fees page.

No. Once your child turns 18, the nominated guardian requirement no longer applies and guardianship services are no longer needed. This is why our university guardianship is priced per term, so you only pay until your child's 18th birthday.

A UK student guardian must be a responsible adult, usually aged 25 or over, who lives permanently in the UK, speaks fluent English and is close enough to respond quickly in an emergency. The guardian must be contactable 24 hours a day, act as the university's emergency contact until the student turns 18, and hold an Enhanced DBS check where they or their household host the student. Liverpool Hope University may also ask for the guardian's details at enrolment and set additional requirements of its own. As an AEGIS-accredited guardianship provider, British Guardianship meets these requirements on your behalf, with vetted guardians, Enhanced DBS checked host families and 24-hour emergency support.
