Welcome to Liverpool!

Posted on: 19 August 2021 in Posts

As the new academic year begins, Kenneth Forkert-Smith (Internationalisation Lead for SotA) and Charlotte Fairclough (Internationalisation & Study Abroad Officer) would like to welcome/re-welcome all students to the School of the Arts. The pandemic has been an extremely difficult time for new and returning students and we want to let you know about the Internationalisation & Study Abroad support that is available to you within the School of the Arts.

If you are an international student, you will find the information on our ‘International Student Support’ student intranet page useful. You can access information from International Advice and Guidance, book your place on one of our monthly Culture Connect events and read more about what is going on in Liverpool and Merseyside.

If you are thinking about Studying Abroad during your degree, you should visit our ‘Studying Abroad’ student intranet page. You will be able to read about all the Study Abroad programmes available at the University and the support available before, during and after being abroad and watch some student Vlogs from previous School of the Arts students who have studied abroad.

Charlotte runs online Zoom drop-ins and is available to answer any questions on Live Chat at the following times:
