New international students

At Essex, you really will find the world in one place. We are proud to be a global community but we recognise that living and studying in the UK may be very different from your own country. The information below will help you prepare for your arrival and how to settle into university life so you can enjoy everything the University of Essex and the UK has to offer. 

Our friendly and professional staff are also on hand to guide, advise and assist you during your time at Essex. We offer a wide range of support covering academic and health and well-being issues.
