History 

The University campus was originally built for Bedford College, the first higher education institution for women in the United Kingdom. Bedford College left the campus in the mid-1980s, and the lease was taken by Rockford College, Illinois, which founded Regent's College to offer a 'study abroad' programme, and provide courses with a clear British focus. The first students arrived in 1985 and a steady flow from the USA has continued since. Gradually, other institutions began to take up residence on the campus, merging in 2006 to become Regent's College. In 2013 the institution gained university status, becoming Regent's University London in June 2013.
