International and European student orientation
A series of social events providing opportunities to meet other international students and introduce you to life at the University.
If you are starting with us in January 2025, we would like to invite you to join our International and EU student orientation programme which will offer you the chance to meet other students and help you settle into your university life in the UK.
We look forward to welcoming you to UWE Bristol very soon but until then you can keep up to date with all that we has to offer on our Instagram.
