When I first arrived, all the tutors and staff were friendly. The staff even took the time to walk me to a building I couldn’t find. Everyone spoke to me clearly and were never annoyed when I asked questions or didn’t understand something.
The social events that the International College puts on are really great, and helpful for making new friends. I played basketball in an organised sports tournament, and it was good fun.
There will always be someone to turn to as you progress through your studies. We will be on hand to help you achieve your academic goals and ensure that you have a rewarding, fun-filled and memorable experience!
Student support starts before you have even arrived in the UK. Our staff can offer advice about applying for a visa, and will be ready to answer any queries you have about the process or about life in the UK. You’ll also receive a pre-arrival guide, packed with useful information and tips.
