This page gives new international students information about when to arrive in the UK.


When to arrive at ÂÒÂ×Ðã

ÂÒÂ×Ðã will be running International Week a week before Term 1 starts in September 2024 (Monday, 16 September–Sunday, 22 September). There will be lots of in-person events and chances to meet new people!

You don't have to arrive during International Week.ÌýBut, you want to make sure that you arrive with enough time to settle in before termÌýstarts. This can includeÌýmoving into your accommodation, opening a UK bank account, registering with a GP, and exploring ÂÒÂ×Ðã's campus. Getting things sorted out first will make your start to ÂÒÂ×Ðã life as smooth as possible.

Things to consider

Of course, there are things to consider if you choose to arrive early.

For students staying in ÂÒÂ×Ðã Accommodation, youÌýmay need to submit anÌý. This can be done on the ÂÒÂ×Ðã Accommodation Portal after you haveÌýaccepted your offer. This also means you will need to pay for any days extra days you spend in ÂÒÂ×Ðã Accommodation.

The same extra costs will applyÌýif you are staying in private accommodation (non-ÂÒÂ×Ðã Accommodation). However, this will need to be arranged directly with your private accommodation.

This choice is yours to make and whenever you arrive, we look forward to welcoming you to ÂÒÂ×Ðã.
