Students’ concerns Before arrival students worried about accommodation, finance adjusting to UK study methods (UG & PGT) language (social & academic) During their stay students worried about language (esp academic, esp E Asians) & study methods homesickness/isolation (those with UK friends were happier with their stay) finance finding work, balancing work & study

Support outside the classroom Institutions need to offer: Appropriate pre-admissions advice/info Comprehensive pre-arrival information Accommodation on arrival Orientation programmes (including provision for non-standard arrival times) On-going advice on practical matters such as immigration, health, housing, finance, employment during & after study Social activities International student societies/support networks (esp of co-nationals) Support for dependants
