Internships in London: Living Abroad

Visas - Very Important!

All internship students are required to obtain a student visa before departure. AIFS will provide instructions to help you secure the visa.

Cultural Travel

With its extensive rail services and five international airports, London is the perfect starting point for tours of the English countryside and the great cities of Europe. Many student travel agencies and low-cost airlines offer round-trip flights to mainland Europe for less than $100. The Richmond student affairs staff will give you advice on where to find the best deals and the orientation program will include an information session with representatives from reputable local student travel agencies.

The Channel Tunnel can take you from London to Paris in just over two hours, and London hub railway lines connect you in a matter of hours to hiking in Wales or visiting the Castle and Royal Mile in Edinburgh. You can travel on your own, with friends or on one of the many sponsored trips organized by the University.
