Leicester celebrates new cohort of students with vibrant Welcome Week programme
This week sees the arrival of a new cohort of students to our University.
Starting University can feel like a daunting task, however the events planned out for Welcome Week will encourage a smooth transition for students into their new phase of life - with a range of free fairs, medical services, and a formal welcoming ceremony.
Activities on offer for Freshers include a Matriculation ceremony, The Fabulous First Year Fair, Volunteering Fair, Societies Fair and The Sports and Active Life Fair.
The Victoria Park Health Centre will also have a Training Room set up offering advice on how to register as a patient with them.
The week provides an opportunity to make new friends, become well-acquainted with campus, and discover the many ways that you can make the most of your time at university.
Professor Jon Scott, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Student Experience said: “We are really looking forward to welcoming all our new students to the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ.
“Our students come to us from all over the UK and from over 100 other countries. Colleagues from all areas of the University have put together a great programme designed to help all these students settle in and make friends as quickly as possible so they can get the most out of their time studying with us.â€
