Description
This friendly and informative session is for students who are new to living or studying in the UK, and/or don’t speak English as their first language.
You’ll learn what studying at UWE Bristol is like, including the different types of classes, the teacher-student relationship, and the types of assessments you might complete. We’ll also introduce the UK university scoring system, so you know what your results mean.
We’ll explore how these aspects of university life may be different from what you’re used to in other countries.
