Key Travel Information

UK Travel Requirements

Non UK nationals require a valid passport to enter the UK. EU National Identity cards are no longer accepted for travel purposes.

Nationals of countries who are exempt from obtaining a UK visa (including EU/EEA) now need to obtain a UK ETA Electronic Travel Authorisation prior to travel.

The ETA costs £16 per person and you will need to register using the UK Government ETA app. There is no additional document – the ETA number will be connected to your passport number.

For more information about how to register for your ETA https://www.gov.uk/guidance/apply-for-an-electronic-travel-authorisation-eta
NB Only use the gov.uk approved app! Other websites offering ETA applications may charge you more than the correct fee and the ETA may not be recognised by UK Border control.

Local Area

The Belfast campus is located in Belfast city in the Arts and cultural quarter “Cathedral Quarter”. The link showcases this historic trading quarter which is a maze of cobblestoned streets and warehouses that are now home to trendy bars, beer gardens, clubs, restaurants and arts organisations. There is a very popular walking art tour beside the campus and the MAC theatre is a  minute’s way away. Even closer to the campus is the historic St Anne’s Cathedral.  A short walk away is the main shopping area of the city with a mix of high end retail, local craft and major high street stores. The City Hall is, again, a 5 minute walk from the campus and, 5 minutes in the other direction, is the river Lagan with its riverside walkways, public art and rich maritime history. Crossing over the Lagan bridge you are in Titanic Quarter with the iconic Harland & Wolff cranes and the Titanic visitor centre. There are excellent rail and bus links from nearby the campus for those who may wish to visit attractions such as Giant’s Causeway, Carrickfergus Castle, the Game of Thrones tour and the beautiful city of Derry~Londonderry.

In November 2024, Ulster University was awarded ‘University of the Year 2024’, the most prestigious title of all by Times Higher Education.

Known as the Oscars of the UK university sector, the Times Higher Education annual awards celebrate the best of higher education in the UK and Ireland. The University of the Year accolade honours exceptional university performance, with this year’s award reflecting achievements during the 2022-23 academic year.
