Welcome Weekend
At UWE, we give students a warm welcome from day one with our unique Welcome Weekend, now in its sixth year.
The UWE Welcome
Packed with events, there’s a real buzz on campus as our new students arrive to start their student journey. As the name suggests, everyone is welcome - so if your families want to come along too, the more the merrier! See the Welcome Weekend film for a taste of what to expect.
International students
We aim to make the transition into university life as easy as possible for all our new students, so we know our welcome events are particularly important for our new international students who may be adjusting to a new country, language and culture. Read our new international students guide for information on everything we provide, from airport pickups to Global Guides.
A few packing essentials:
- Alarm clock
- Bedding and towels
- Passport/ID and bank details
- Photos and address book
- Map of Bristol
