We have a long history of welcoming Cypriot students to our campus, which is within easy reach of Cyprus. You can fly direct from Paphos, or you can depart from Larnaca and reach us via other European hub airports. Our campus is easy to get to from Manchester International Airport by taxi or public transport.
Salford and Manchester has a thriving Cypriot community which means that there are also many options for Cypriot and Mediterranean food options in Manchester such as Kosmos Tavernas and Rozafa’s.
