Republic is perfectly situated for access to East London’s rich and diverse neighbourhood — all accessible by foot, bicycle or public transport.
To the southwest of the campus you’ll find Canary Wharf and Bank, both major London business and financial centres, presenting exciting opportunities for new graduates.
Canary Wharf, known for its iconic skyline, provides students easy access to hundreds of shops, cafés, bars and restaurants. Additionally, London’s City Centre, just a 13-minute ride away on the DLR, offers access to historic landmarks such as St Paul’s Cathedral, Royal Exchange, Mansion House, Old Bailey, and Smithfield Market, all within easy reach.
Stratford and the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park are to the North — with some of London’s best sporting facilities and parkland, as well as Westfield Stratford City for those in need of retail therapy. Hackney Wick, Fish Island and Victoria Park is where a growing creative community thrives — alongside a lively social scene.
