Koya, an ancient city and cradle of numerous social, religious, scientific and political leaders, was for centuries a focal centre of education and training. With the city's strategic location, economic potential and sophisticated population, Koya has embraced the University as its favourite landmark. Koya University is a ‘collegiate’ university. The colleges are a major part of the Koya University experience and are one of the key reasons our students give for applying. Koya University’s college system is arguably the most distinctive feature of the University. Colleges are small enough to foster a strong sense of community, whilst still allowing students to enjoy all the academic and other benefits of a large University.
