The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom and Britain, is a sovereign state located off the northwestern coast of continental Europe. The two most famous (and oldest) universities are Oxford and Cambridge (often referred to as Oxbridge by many Britons). England also has several other world-class institutions, including several in London (notably Imperial College, the London School of Economics, University College London and King's College London, all are part of London University).

Summer courses allow students to take classes and earn academic credit hours during the summertime, when most students are on break. Many schools offer seasonal courses to help students move through their educational programs faster and to gain important skills and knowledge.
