Our friendly International Office staff are always happy to help and can answer any questions you may have about living and studying here.

Welcome Programme

Every September, we arrange a free Welcome Programme for international and EU students, which is designed to help you settle into life in the UK and at the University before your studies begin.

During the Programme, you will meet other undergraduate students and explore the University and the city, so that you know where to worship, relax and shop. You will also meet current international students who will be able to share their experiences and offer advice.
