Adjusting to a new culture, education system and lifestyle in another country can be stimulating, enjoyable, and life-enhancing – but it can also be challenging, especially when you first arrive. We are committed to ensuring that all our new students are given every opportunity to succeed here. Our Orientation is therefore designed to provide the best possible introduction to studying and living here in Manchester.

Orientation takes place in September and this Guide provides you with details of all the events on offer for you. The programme is designed to support you in settling into our vibrant city and to provide opportunities for you to make many new lasting connections. I am confident that your participation in Orientation will give you an excellent grounding for success in your studies (and of course your wider social life) in Manchester.

I look forward to welcoming you in September!

Our events provide you with an excellent opportunity to meet existing international and UK students and to make friends with other new students. All of our activities have been designed with feedback from international students arriving last year to ensure that you receive all the vital information and support you need to make a success of your time with us. As you will see, events are marked with what we believe you will get from attending them:

Activities marked with l are designed to contribute

important to you

Activities marked with f will give you the opportunity to have FUN, meet new people and

start making friends

Activities marked with e will help you to EXPLORE the

campus and the city

Please note that some events are mandatory for Study Abroad and Exchange, ERASUMUS and Science without Borders Students. We do however strongly recommend that all students attend one of the Core Presentation Sessions on Friday 12, Saturday 13 and Sunday 14. Apart from this session, you are free to choose workshops, trips and social events to suit your interests and questions.

“Being an international student, I found the help from the Orientation team immensely useful and supportive in my first few weeks at University. I had just moved to a new country and the Orientation Team helped me with every single problem that I had, from finding the quickest route to lecture theatres to getting my Unirider pass sorted. I would have never settled in so easily without their support and friendliness.“

UNivErSiTy ShUTTlE SErviCE TO rESidENCES

We run a free coach shuttle service for new international students between Manchester Airport and all University accommodation sites. Priority on this service will be given to students arriving on their own.

dATes And TIMes Of The servICeThe service operates from Tuesday 9 to Sunday 14 September from 0800 to 2130 and stops at all University accommodation. If you are not sure whether you are living in University accommodation, please check the list of residences on the booking form. We run a very frequent service, which means you shouldn’t have to wait more than an hour.

However, at rush hour and very busy periods, buses can take longer to make the round trip so we ask you to be patient. Journey time is between 20 and 60 minutes depending upon the hall.

hOW TO Use The servICeYou must book a place in advance online bit.ly/bookussr. Please note that this is a separate process from booking a place on the Orientation programme.

When you arrive at Manchester Airport, look out for our student ambassadors who will be wearing purple T-shirts or hoodies with the University of Manchester logo. There will be student ambassadors in each terminal who will direct you to the airport bus station from where the Shuttle Service coaches depart regularly. If you do not see the ambassadors in the terminal when you arrive, just follow the signs for ‘The Station’.

TrAvellIng TO yOUr ACCOMMOdATIOn WIThOUT UsIng The UnIversITy shUTTle servICe TO resIdenCes If you are travelling with family members or non-student friends, or are arriving outside of the Shuttle Service to Residences times, you can use public transport.

Taxis are readily available outside the airport and cost approximately £25 to the city centre. Alternatively, there is a rail link direct from the airport to Manchester Piccadilly railway station in the city centre. The cost of a single ticket is around £3.20. You might want to look at Manchester airport’s own website which gives detailed information about travelling from the airport and also has a taxi pre-booking service available: www.manchesterairport.co.uk

AdvICe On TrAvellIng TO The UKThe Arrival Guide, which you should have already received, contains information and advice on what to pack, what to expect at the airport and how to travel around Manchester. The Guide is also available to download from www.manchester.ac.uk/arrival

Please note there are no porters available at Manchester Airport or at University accommodation so you will have to carry your own luggage. Luggage trollies at the airport cost £1 or € 2 to use – this money is not refundable. You may want to check with family or friends to see if they have some coins you can take with you in your hand luggage so that you can use the trollies.

“I still remember how I benefited from student ambassadors the first time I came to Manchester. I was gave a warm welcome at the airport by student ambassadors and during the welcome week, student ambassadors help me with moving into my room and assisted me with the whole procedure of registration with great zeal which I appreciated a lot. “

You must bring your ticket to this session and arrive in good time (at least 15 minutes before the start). If you miss your day or cannot book in advance then you are still welcome to come along and queue and we will seat you if we can.

These sessions also present you with another opportunity to make friends with everyone who comes along.


Everyone! These sessions are run by students for all students at the University, no matter what level of study you’re at. If you’ve attempted to make a friend but walked away not quite understanding the outcome or are confused about what kinds of questions you should be asking and what you should avoid these sessions are for you. Come along with

any questions you have or scenarios you’ve encountered to act out so that we can see what’s happened and discuss with other students that may have been in a similar position. We will look at what different actions could mean in different cultures and encourage friendships amongst the groups as well as trying to boost your confidence when trying to make friends outside of these sessions.

“When I first came to The University of Manchester, it was a very exciting and yet scary time in my life as I have never been to any European Country or had to live so far away from home. The student ambassadors were so helpful and made me feel at ease in a new environment and a country where I have never been to before.“

“I was helped a lot by student ambassadors during registration and welcome week, and they were really friendly and patient. They also offered me tips such as short cuts or where the best place to study was or just grab some food. They offered useful information that you don’t necessarily get in arrival guides or from lecturers and gave brilliant advice about the campus in general. I want to offer the same experiences to new students as I know how daunting it can be and what a difference a friendly, helpful face can make.“

ACCOMMOdATIOnAccommodation is not provided as part of the Orientation Programme.

If you have booked and accepted accommodation within the University’s Residences we will make every effort to place you in your allocated room for the academic year however this is not guaranteed and therefore it may be necessary for you to stay in a temporary room until your room for the academic year is available. The start date for most University Accommodation Licence Agreements is Thursday 11 September, however, some Licence Agreements do not start until Saturday 13 or Sunday 14 September.

If you are unsure of the date on which your accommodation contract starts, please contact the accommodation office by emailing: [email protected]. If you intend to arrive prior to the beginning of your contract, bookings can be made online from July 2014 via the following link: www.accommodation.manchester.ac.uk/hall-life/128

If you are going to be living in University accommodation, you might want to order a bedding pack to cut down on your luggage. This should be done in advance at estore.manchester.ac.uk. Please type the words ‘bedding pack’ in the search box.

AlTernATIve ACCOMMOdATIOn ArrAngeMenTsIf you cannot be accommodated within the University’s Residences for the period of the Orientation Programme, please make appropriate arrangements with a hotel or hostel. A list of alternative accommodation can be found through the following link www.accommodation.manchester.ac.uk/open-house. Look at the links under Open House Accommodation on the left side of the page.

ACCess TO InTerneT / PCsTo access the University’s computer network, you must follow a sign up procedure. You can do this before arriving in Manchester or from a University computer cluster.

There will be student ambassadors at International Student Check-In during Orientation and Welcome who are available to help you with any aspect of your IT use, from completing registration to connecting online.

OPenIng A UK BAnK ACCOUnTIf you are studying with us for more than one semester, you are likely to want to open a UK bank account. This can sometimes be a difficult experience for non-UK students and will certainly take some time. You should ensure that you have enough funds available to cover you for your first two weeks in Manchester in case there is a delay with opening an account. One major difficulty that students encounter is when their names are recorded differently on their passport from their student record so please do make sure that these are identical.

Please note: that when you come to open a bank account in the UK you will need the following documents -

1. Your passport to prove your identity.

2. A bank letter from the University which confirms your home address (this cannot be a PO Box) and your address in Manchester (this cannot be a hotel).

3. Your University accommodation contract (if you will be living in University accommodation).

If you arrive between 1 and 30 September you can collect a bank letter from International Student Check-In or from the IT Helpdesk, located in the Whitworth Building.

ChIldrenChildren are very welcome at the majority of Orientation and Welcome events, and these are shown with the child friendly symbol. At the same time, you do need to be aware that University buildings were designed with adults in mind so please do take care of your children whilst they are on campus.

“When I first arrived Manchester, I was impressed, delighted and of course touched by the helpfulness and motivated students ambassadors. They have guided me and shed some light so that I could be in my best state to enjoy university life. “

immigraTiON PErmiSSiON

If you are not from the eeA or switzerland, you must check before you travel to the UK that you have Tier 4 immigration permission (visa) that allows you to study at The University of Manchester.

If you used a CAS from The University of Manchester to apply for Tier 4, the immigration permission in your passport should contain The University of Manchester’s sponsor license number: Q3DK76WN4. If you have immigration permission with a different sponsor license number on it, you will not be permitted to register with us until you have made an application to switch Tier 4 sponsors.

If you are overseas and you have immigration permission with a different sponsor license number on it and you applied with a CAS from a different Tier 4 institution you should make a new Tier 4 application from overseas. You should not travel to the UK with the intention to study at The University of Manchester if you have immigration permission with a different sponsor license number on it as this could lead to problems with immigration when you arrive in the UK.

If you have any queries about this please contact the International Advice Team on: +44 (0)161 275 5000 (Option 1) or email them at: [email protected].

Please note if you are studying with us for one semester only, you may be eligible to travel here without the Tier 4 visa. You can check the following website for more advice and guidance. bit.ly/visaapplyuom

If you are unsure whether you have the correct type of immigration permission to study with us or if your visa or biometric residence permit states a CAS number issued by a different institution, check online at: bit.ly/visapermissionuom

“I’m from China and it’s my first time to England to study. As a foreigner, I know how lonely a person will feel when he comes to a new city. When I arrived at Manchester Airport, I didn’t know anyone here and had no idea how to get to the University. I was afraid that I may get lost in this city. When I saw the student ambassadors at the airport, I felt so hopeful and safe. They helped me to get on the shuttle bus to the residence I’m living now. Also, the student ambassadors helped me to find out the way to the student service centre and helped to register. It’s so wonderful that somebody helps you when you come to a new place. “

POliCE rEgiSTraTiON

Certain nationalities are required to register with the police within 7 days of arrival in the UK. Please check the conditions on your visa sticker or card to see if you need to register. If you are required to register, you must make an appointment to visit the International Visitors Registration Office.

To provide the most efficient service, registration will be managed using scheduled appointments.

The University, together with Greater Manchester Police, is currently in the process of making improvements to the appointment system for students to ensure that you are able to find and book the next available appointment, print off the necessary documentation and store all the details as part of your student record.

This facility will be available through My Manchester from July 2014, but it is possible that not all testing of the service will be completed by then. If this is the case, please be reassured that we will organise sessions to support you in making appointments using our IT Helpdesk staff and ambassadors. You can check for updates on the system on our webpages, the Welcome website (available in August), on your regular e-update or in person if you are on a pre-sessional language course.

If you have any questions please email [email protected] or visit us on the IT Helpdesk in the Whitworth Building from 1 September.

“I am very fortunate and proud to be a student here and I think that it’s a brilliant University. I remember being a fresher and absolutely terrified of the idea of travelling halfway across the globe to a foreign land to further my studies, but with the help and guidance from the friendly student ambassadors, it really made settling down here in the UK much easier.“

“Coming from Spain, the day I moved to university was also the first time I ever visited the UK. I was excited, but at the same time I felt lost and confused and I did not know what to expect. It was a major relief to have someone smile at me as soon as we got to the airport, welcome our group and guide us through the start of our new life.

I cannot count the amount of times I stopped a student ambassador to ask for the simplest things such as the location of buildings or the workings of buses and transport. It was very helpful but overall, what counted the most was the feeling that the University cared about us, the newcomers.“

Ana Bujosa

STUDENTS’ UNION

Student life isn’t just about studying. It’s about making friends, taking a stand, having fun and exploring a new city. We’re the UK’s largest Student Union and we’re run by students, for students. We provide you with the space, resource and money to make the most out of your time at University.

The Students’ Union is the voice of the student body, representing the views and interests of our students to the University and on a local and national scale. Through our elected Exec Team and our democratic decision-making processes, we ensure that all of our students have a say on how their Union is run.

We help the University to make decisions that are in the interest of our students and we support and run key campaigns for positive change. We also offer training and development opportunities for students and we are responsible for over a thousand course and student representatives, ensuring your views are always represented.

The Students’ Union is at the heart of student life and we’ve got an activity to suit everyone. Whether you’re a committed fundraiser, have a passion for volunteering or simply want to meet like-minded folk, we’ve got it covered. With over 300 societies ranging from Knitsoc to Scuba Diving, you’re sure to find a society for you. If there isn’t one…we’ll help you create your own!

We know that leaving home for the first time can be daunting, so our Advice Service is on hand to help out with personal, academic, financial and accommodation issues. This service is completely free, totally confidential and run by professional advisors who are independent from the University.

In our building you can enjoy a freshly brewed coffee in Biko’s cafe, grab a meal deal from the Union Store or relax over a pizza and a drink in the Union Bar. We’re a charity, so every penny you spend at the Students’ Union is reinvested into developing and improving services for students.

The Students’ Union is also home to Manchester Academy, one of the UK’s most iconic music venues. We also stage Pangaea, Europe’s largest student-led festival. Taking place three times a year, Pangaea sees over 6,000 students descend upon the Students’ Union for a night of music, mayhem and mischief.
