New Facebook Group for EU and International Students!
International Student Support have created a new Facebook group dedicated to our international and EU students. Through this new feature we can update you on important information and activities, including immigration news and updates, University and International Student Support events, and any important changes to University services that could affect you. The group is private and managed by International Student Support, and so it will be dedicated to your needs and requirements.
To request to join the group you can click here.
EU Settlement Sessions – Book Your Place!
As many of you are aware, the UK is currently in a transition period as part of the Brexit process until 31st December 2020 following its exit from the European Union on 31st January 2020. EU or EEA citizens are required to make an application for EU Settlement to be able to continue to study, work or live in the UK after 31st December 2020. We understand that many of your may have questions about this process and what it means, and so we would like to offer our help and support to you.
International Student Support are holding informal sessions where we can offer advice, support with your application, and help with answering any questions you may have. Places are limited, and so if you would like to attend any of these sessions please book:
EU Settlement Session 2: Wednesday 25th March 2020, 12pm to 1pm
EU Settlement Session 3: Wednesday 8th April 2020, 12pm to 1pm
