Starting University as an international student is a big thing, so we are putting on a specific international fair to give you another chance to meet the teams who will support you during your time at the University. Whether you arrived after our general Welcome Fair or have some more questions you want to ask. 

Drop-in to the Great Hall to meet staff from these teams and departments and meet other international students in our social space, take part in activities and pick up some freebies. Drop in at a time convenient to you. 

You'll be able to find out useful information and ask any questions you might have. Everyone is welcome!
