London Center Facilities |

| The ACCENT London Center is first and foremost an information and resource center where students and faculty can stop in to ask questions, talk about problems they might have, discuss classes and schedules, collect their mail, or just chat with someone about their experiences. |
CLASSROOMS
ACCENT students attend classes at the London Study Center, in the same building as the ACCENT London Center, or are directly enrolled at a university or college in London. |
BULLETIN BOARDS
In the ACCENT London Center, bulletin boards provide information about various happenings around London: art exhibits, concerts, U.K.-U.S. activities, sports activities, as well as special events taking place throughout London and Great Britain. |
TRAVEL INFORMATION
The ACCENT London Center can provide students with information on travel outside of London, including the location of student travel agencies, train and bus schedules, special student travel fares and railpass information. |
