Hi, I’m Alex and I’m your VP International.
Congratulations, you’re an Essex student at Colchester Campus! Which also means you are an automatic member of the kick-ass SU that will have your back from day one.
As an international student we have put together a handy guide for you, full of everything you need to know. Inside you’ll find:
· Introductions from your sabbatical officers.
· Information on faith and where you can find international food and services in and around Colchester.
· Directions on how to access the services you might need in your time with us.
· Information on right to work documents, permits and immigration.
· Details about what to do if English isn’t your first language.
· Support for mental health and wellbeing.
· Emergency contact details.
· Travel information, and details about campus and the surrounding area.
Sound good? Take a look at your International Student Guide.
