Libya
The University of Glasgow has been a popular choice with students from Libya since the 1960s. The first student from Libya arrived at the University in 1961 to study Medicine.
In addition to Glasgow’s historic reputation as a prestigious research-led university, students from Libya are also attracted by the city’s diverse cultural heritage, renowned architecture and the Libyan School in the city. Students have the opportunity to join a number of different clubs and organisations within the University including the Muslim Student Association which is one of the largest and most active societies on campus.
