History
Amity University was founded on March 24, 2005, by the UP Vidhan Sabha through the Amity University Uttar Pradesh Act, 2005. The university’s roots are in the Ritnand Balved Education Foundation.
Setting a pioneering pattern, it became India’s inaugural private university to introduce reservations and merit-based scholarships for students. By 2011, it boasted a student body exceeding 80,000 enrolled across 240 diverse programmes.
The institution and the BSE Institute, a division owned by the Bombay Stock Exchange, signed a memorandum of collaboration in September 2015, marking an important milestone. This partnership paved the way for the introduction of a 2-year distance learning MBA programme focusing on global financial markets, catering to both students and working professionals.
Expanding its global footprint, in September 2016, Amity University ventured into the United States by acquiring the 170-acre campus of St. John’s University in Oakdale, New York. Currently, in partnership with Adelphi University, it offers a range of Global MBA and graduate programs at the New York Campus.
Student accommodation
Students have the freedom to look for a place to stay in the city, and there are many options for shared houses and apartments available online. While rents in London can be high, with some effort, you can find decent rooms for around £750 per month (excluding bills) in zones 2-3.
However, it’s crucial to personally visit and inspect potential accommodations to ensure they are suitable before making any commitments. If you can’t visit in person, to avoid any risks, Amity suggests considering staying in a university-managed residence hall. They can help you secure a room in various student halls across the city.
Student life
Amity boasts a student body of over 100,000 individuals enrolled in 250 diverse programs spanning fields such as law, journalism, telecom, biotechnology, and more. This offers you the chance to build lasting connections across a wide range of professions, an opportunity that few business schools can match.
Amitians have achieved success in a wide range of competitions, including sports, drama, debate, and several intra- and inter-institute festivals and events.
