Our Transition Programme is designed to help you adapt to university life and includes access to a mentor and social sessions to help you find your feet. You’ll also be assigned a Personal Tutor, who can give you academic guidance and steer you towards any help you might need on practical and personal matters.

New international students are invited to a series of online orientation events before they arrive in the UK, followed by in-person orientation events that run the week before term starts. If you need more support, UCL Student Support and Wellbeing offers information, advice and services to help all our students thrive. This includes free, easy-to-access mental health and wellbeing advisers, counselling, disability assistance, events to help you look after yourself and much more. We also have a dedicated team of department-specific Student Advisers, who are on hand to support first-year undergraduates.
