International Foundation Programme student services

As an international Foundation Programme student, you’ll have access to all of the University of Bristol’s resources including a comprehensive student support service. If you ever need help with anything, you will have someone to talk to.

Talk to someone

There are a range of services available for your wellbeing at the University of Bristol. For example, the Student Wellbeing Service provides professional help and guidance, and can help you to settle in and adjust to university life. The University’s Students’ Union also offers advice and support services, ensuring that you’ll always have somebody you can talk to if you need.

Academic support

You will have a variety of options when it comes to academic support to help you stay on track. You’ll have a personal academic tutor, and will attend frequent academic tutorials to support your professional development.

Wellbeing

Positive wellbeing and success is an integral part of the International Foundation Programme. The University of Bristol Student Wellbeing Service is available to provide guidance and support on any worries or concerns you have.

Welcome events

Like most UK universities, the University of Bristol has a Welcome Week before classes begin. There will be a number of fun and exciting events and activities to participate in, helping you to meet new people, make new friends and have a fantastic introduction to student life in Bristol. Many of these events are free, and other events will continue to be organised after Welcome Week has finished. We strongly recommend that you take part in the fun; it will help you have the best possible start to your International Foundation Programme!
