International studentsI’ve moved into my room, what do I need to do now?

Aside from exploring the local area, meeting your flatmates and enrolling at your university, you should also consider the following;

  • Register with a GP – you can often do this on your university campus

  • Open a UK bank account – your university’s international office should be able to help you with this

  • Get a TV Licence – if you’ve got a TV in your flat or plan to watch TV online on your laptop you’ll need to get a TV licence.
