January orientation

15 January 2024

This is a one day condensed version of Welcome Week particularly for students arriving for Semester 2. It’s short so that you can get straight into your studies. There are society and social activities during the following week for you to try. We also hold a pre-orientation event on Friday 12 January 2024 (Streatham Campus) for students arriving early.

Read your pre-arrival emails in December for more information on January Orientation. exeter.ac.uk/ internationalstudents/ newstudents/whenyouarriveexeter

Global Chums Mentor Scheme

Our successful Global Chums Mentor Scheme has been in operation for many years and is available for students arriving at Exeter and Cornwall in September and January. The scheme gives you an opportunity to be matched with a second or third year student to give advice on living in the UK and to help you during your first year. You can ask your mentor anything... what the social scene is like or what it is like to study in the UK! Further information is available from 1 July at exeter.ac.uk/ globalchums
