What our students say
Settling into the UK was challenging in the first few days as it is extremely different from Nairobi but one thing that automatically made it easier was Freshers’ Week. Between all the activities and nights out, I was able to meet some amazing people who made settling in a lot easier.
In addition to the vibrant student community, there are a variety of extra-curricular activities to participate in, which both further your skills and give you the opportunity to socialise.
