ISH believe every young person should have the opportunity to succeed whatever their background.

Close to London's West End and adjacent to the beautiful Regents Park, ISH is the ideal place for both British and overseas students to live whilst studying in London. We are also only three stops from Paris - who else can say that? ISH offers a wide range of accommodation to suit all requirements. Events 365 days a year; culture evenings, themed suppers, lectures and debates, Travel Club and a full Christmas programme...ISH is a fabulous place to live!

Just the little sounds that make up a typical day as a student. Some are satisfying, some are peaceful... and some are a little unexpected.

Which sound was your favourite?

The free weekend brunch is genuinely one of the best things about living at ISH. Great food, zero cooking, and the whole community in one room. Come hungry 💛

You arrive in London not knowing a single soul and somehow end up with a family from every corner of the world. 💛

Swipe through a year of floor dinners, Halloween nights, Lunar New Year in Chinatown, go-kart races and everything in between. This is what friendship looks like at ISH.

Tag the friend who made London feel like home.

One day, this little card will remind me of an entire chapter of my life as an international student in London.

Friendships are made in the moments we share 💙🌍

From Karaoke Nights to Coffee Connect mornings. From study groups afternoons and spontaneous chats over coffee to DJ Club nights and watching the sun set from the beer garden. The Thirsty Scholar is where the ISH community comes together.

Every laugh, every conversation, and every shared experience helps turn strangers into friends and friends into lifelong memories. No matter where you're from, there's always a seat at the table.

Happy International Day of Friendship to everyone who has found friendship, belonging, and a home away from home at International Students House. 🫶

Tag someone you've met at The Thirsty Scholar who made your ISH experience unforgettable.
