International Orientation
We are excited to be welcoming all our international students at our International Orientation event on 21st September 2025!
We recommend that you arrive in the UK during the accommodation arrivals weekend, so that you can be welcomed by our arrivals crew and you can join our orientation event.
Attending the orientation event is a fantastic way to start your life in the UK, get used to university, and make friends from all over the world. In the past, those who join have fewer problems and an easier time settling into their studies. We highly recommend you sign up for this event and join us for this formal welcome event.
