Both are full of useful information that will answer many of the questions you may have so please do take the time to read them carefully. You will find information on how to book your place on our free International Orientation Programme, book our Heathrow airport pick up, register and pay your fees, apply for your visa (if you need one), book accommodation and travel to our campuses. A final set of pre-arrival information will be posted on at least 6 weeks before you commence your studies. If you need specific or personal advice send us an , visit us or telephone at any time during office hours Monday Friday 09:00 17:00. internationalarrivals@anglia.ac.uk The International Student Advice Service (pictured below) and all the staff at Anglia Ruskin University look forward to welcoming you.

5 Arriving in the UK: Passing through immigration When you travel to the UK, it s very important to remember to carry all of your documents necessary for entry through UK immigration with you in your hand luggage. You should also keep the following telephone numbers in your hand luggage for use in an emergency. For example, our International Student Advice Service (see Useful Contacts at the back of this guide) if you are prevented from entering the UK and University Security +44 (0) if your incoming flight is delayed by several hours and you will be arriving late onto campus. If you travel to the UK by air, you will probably arrive at one of London s main international airports Heathrow, Gatwick or Stansted. When you arrive at the UK border you will find there are two queues at passport control. One is for European Economic Area (EEA & Swiss) nationals and the other is for non-eea nationals. There may even be a special queue for Tier 4 student visa holders. You will first have to show your passport and entry clearance (visa) if you have one, to an Immigration Officer. When you arrive in the UK, your passport will be checked along with your documents and you may be asked a few questions as you pass through immigration. EEA and Swiss nationals may have to wait as the queues can be also very long especially at peak times but you should pass through immigration easily. If you have a Tier 4 visa to enter the UK then be prepared to answer a few questions about yourself and your intentions during and after completion of your course. You may also be asked whether your financial circumstances have changed since you applied for your Tier 4 student visa. You may be asked to prove this with a bank statement or sponsor s letter. You may also be asked to prove that you have a definite place at our University so always carry your University offer letter/ CAS statement and recent bank statements/ evidence of a loan/scholarship in your hand luggage. You may also be asked where you will living while in the UK so we recommend that you arrange your accommodation before you leave your home country. We would always recommend that you are polite and patient especially as you may have to wait a long time. When the immigration officer has checked your documents, and is satisfied that you are a genuine student, you will get a stamp in your passport (visa holders only) and will be allowed to pass through to customs. If you have a Tier 4 visa it is essential that your passport is stamped to show the date you entered the UK, so check in your passport this has been done as immigration officers occasionally forget which causes problems for students. If you are an EEA or Swiss national you will not receive a stamp in your passport. In case you need to phone Anglia Ruskin for assistance, try to arrive during daytime, on a weekday and during University opening hours. 5

6 Customs Control Once you have collected your luggage you will have to join a queue for clearance through customs. This will either be the green channel if you have nothing to declare, the red channel if you have goods to declare or the blue channel if you have arrived from an airport within the European Economic Area. If you are travelling to the UK from a country outside the European Union and are carrying 10,000 Euros or more in cash, bankers draft or cheque of any kind (about 7500 in pounds sterling or the equivalent in other currencies) you will need to declare this at customs. A penalty of up to 5,000 can be imposed if you do not make this declaration or give incorrect or incomplete information. If you are carrying more than the permitted duty-free or tax-free allowances or any prohibited goods, you must pass through the red channel. If you aren t sure about what you can bring into the UK you should check with your local British Embassy or High Commission before you begin your journey. For information there are major restrictions on the personal import of meat and dairy products into the UK from non-eu countries. As the UK is very multicultural you should be able to find most of the meat and dairy products in the UK so don t be tempted to bring anything through customs. Important: The UK has severe penalties against drug smuggling. Drug traffickers may try to bribe travellers. If you are travelling to the UK, avoid any involvement with drugs, never agree to carry anything into the UK for anybody else and never leave your luggage unattended. Heathrow airport pick up We will be organising an airport collection service from Heathrow airport on 13 September 2017 so that students can arrive in time to attend the International & EU Orientation Programme in Cambridge and Chelmsford. For new students starting in January 2018 a similar service will be offered on 24 January We normally organise one coach transfer in the morning at around 10:30 and one midafternoon at around 15:30 (may be subject to change so check on line) We recommend that you choose flight times that allow you to arrive in the UK either early morning or early afternoon wherever possible. As students arrive on so many different flights from all over the world and at many different airports we hope you understand that we cannot collect everybody. The good news is that Anglia Ruskin s Cambridge campus is easily accessible from Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted by an hourly, reliable public coach service. National Express tickets can be bought in advance on-line. More information is available over the next few pages. If a European flight to Stansted Airport is less expensive for you than a flight to Heathrow we recommend that you fly to Stansted. The public bus service to Cambridge and Chelmsford from Stansted is frequent and relatively inexpensive. There is no need to pay more to fly to Heathrow airport just for an airport pick up. You will get to the campus much quicker if you arrive at Stansted. As travelling to our Chelmsford campus involves a number of different changes we recommend that you arrive in time for the Heathrow Airport Pick up or arrive at Stansted Airport. If neither of these options are convenient you will find details of all major transport links in the section Travelling to Chelmsford. Bookings for our FREE Heathrow airport pick up can be made on line at anglia.ac.uk/airport. On line bookings open in July 2017 if you are joining us in September 2017 and November 2017 if you will be starting January

7 Using public transport to travel to our University Public transport in the UK is generally of a high standard, but can be more expensive than in your home country. Buses or coaches are cheaper than trains but you may have a longer journey time. Taxis are very expensive. You will need to decide how to get from your point of entry into the UK to your campus, bearing in mind the difference in cost and journey time between bus/coach, train and taxi. Remember it s always best to arrive at your campus during working hours (9.00 am 5.00 pm, Monday-Friday) Coaches in the UK Visit nationalexpress.com Inter-town bus services (known as coaches in England) duplicate many rail routes, very often at half the price of the train or less. The coach services are frequent and sometimes the difference in journey time is small when travelling by coach rather than train and a coach will save you money. Trains in the UK Visit: nationalrail.co.uk Trains in the UK can be fast and convenient but are expensive and often crowded at peak times. If you arrive at Heathrow or Gatwick you will need to travel into Central London by the London Underground and then change again onto another train to get to Cambridge or Chelmsford. This can be quite a struggle if you have heavy bags or a large amount of luggage. The London Underground Visit: tfl.gov.uk for information on travelling in London. The London Underground, often referred to as the Tube has 11 different lines running for 20 hours every day (some lines are open 24 hours). At certain times of the day (between 8am 10am in the morning and 4pm 7pm in the evening) the Underground will be very busy as people are using it to travel to and from work. Each line has a name and is shown in a different colour on the Underground map. You may need to change lines during your journey. You can do this by getting off the train at a station where the line you are travelling on crosses the line which goes to the station you need. Before you can enter the Underground you must identify the Underground station where you will want to get off and buy a ticket to that station. Tube maps are displayed at stations or you can down load the APP Tube Map. If you have some coins you can buy your ticket from one of the machines. Most of the ticket machines will give you change if you do not have the right amount of coins but others may not. Do check this before putting money in the machine. The London Underground does not go as far as Chelmsford or Cambridge. You will need to transfer to a train or coach from London. Visit the website above for information on how to buy tickets. 7

8 Travelling to Cambridge For travel to the Cambridge campus from London Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton or Stansted airports, we recommend you use the National Express coach service unless you really need or want to travel through central London.

12 Travelling to Peterborough London Heathrow airport Take the Underground (Piccadilly Line - Eastbound) all the way from Heathrow to Kings Cross station then take a main line train from Kings Cross Station to Peterborough. The service is regular and should 1 hour. Cost will depend on the time you travel and if you book your ticket in advance ( 27). Upon arrival we recommend you take a taxi to your accommodation. Taking a taxi A taxi from Heathrow or Gatwick airports to any of our campuses will be VERY EXPENSIVE (approximately ). If you choose to travel by taxi it will be cheaper if you book in advance please internationalarrivals@anglia.ac.uk for advice. If you have a large amount of heavy luggage you may decide that the convenience of a door-to-door service is worth the expense but please do read this section for other travel options. Remember to agree a taxi fare beforehand, so you know how much you will have to pay and have enough money with you. Collection of Biometric Residence Permit (Tier 4 student visas only) If you have been granted a Tier 4 visa to study at Anglia Ruskin the sticker in your passport will only give you a visa for 30 days to travel to the UK. When you arrive you only have 10 days to collect your Biometric Residence Permit (visa) from our i-centre at Anglia Ruskin. This card is your visa and lasts for the duration of your studies. If you do not collect the card within 10 days the immigration authorities in the UK may cancel your visa. If you are unsure about what to do see an International Student Adviser in the International office. 12

13 Cost of living in the UK Until you get used to the cost of living here in the UK you will need to plan ahead and keep to a budget. Some things may be more expensive than you expect but you should find it affordable to live and study in the UK. To help you plan ahead for your time in the UK you might like to use the International Student Calculator studentcalculator.org.uk/international. This on-line tool will help you to build a lifestyle budget by week, month or year, obtain information on banking and insurance as well as guidance on the costs of living and top tips and case studies from other students. We have also put together an example budget. This will give you an idea of what you will need for one academic year. Accommodation 4800 Food 1500 Clothing 350 Books and stationery 250 Personal (toiletries, laundry, etc) 500 Telephone 250 Socialising 400 Travel (within the UK) 300 Miscellaneous 400 Total 8750 Approximate monthly 875 Bringing money for your living costs in the UK You will need to have some spending money for the first few days/ weeks in the UK while you set up a bank account. A suggested amount is 500 in a mixture of travellers cheques and cash in Sterling (the UK currency). This should cover the costs of the many things you will need as you settle in. You can obtain cash at the major airports before you start your journey to our campus. If you have a compatible debit card (e.g. Maestro/VISA) you will be able to use automated cash machines which can be found at banks, in major shopping areas and other public spaces in the UK. Remember that you may have a daily limit on the amount you can withdraw and not all cards will work in ATM machines in the UK so check with your bank before you travel. If you are studying for less than an academic year or need to take temporary accommodation you will need to have extra money available to pay your rent before you move in. If you come from a country outside the European Union (EU) carrying cash equivalent to 10,000 Euros ( 7500) or more (including money in other currencies) you must declare it to UK Customs at the port of entry to the UK. Cash means currency notes, coins, travellers cheques and bankers drafts. Other factors to consider: Some courses include field trips, where all or part of the cost must be paid by the student. Postgraduate students who are studying for the full calendar year will need to budget for the extra months they spend at our University. Postgraduate students may also require extra funds for research and presentation of their thesis. Health Insurance: If you are studying a course that is shorter than six months, and you are not from an EU country or one with a reciprocal health care arrangement, you will not receive free health care and so should buy private medical insurance before you leave your home country. EU students must remember to bring their European Health Insurance Card (EHIC)from their home country. 13

14 Police registration Firstly don t panic! This regulation only applies to some students from outside the EEA and will be stated on your 30 day entry clearance (visa) sticker and/or your Biometric Residence Permit or the letter you were given when your visa was successful. If you are required to register with the police you must do so within 7 days of your arrival in the UK. You will need to take 2 passportsized photographs, the registration fee (currently 34), proof that you are studying at our University and the decision letter you were sent when your visa was granted with you to the Police station. Our International Office can help you to make an appointment directly with the police station when you arrive in the UK. Don t go to the police station yourself. If you are unclear about whether you need to register with the police please contact the International Office as soon as you arrive. If you are required to register with the police and have been living in the UK and moved to Cambridge, Chelmsford or Peterborough you will need to go to the Police Station and inform them of your new address. Remember that this doesn t apply to every student. A list of nationalities that are required to register and keep their details up to date with the police can be found by clicking this link: Important: Failing to register with the police and update them of any changes if you are required to do so is a breach of your immigration conditions. If you are unclear whether you need to register with the police please contact the International Office. Opening a UK bank account Most students studying more than 6 months will need to open a bank account soon after their arrival in the UK. Most international students are able to open a basic account relatively easily. If you are studying for only one semester (less than 6 months) it can be very difficult to open an account in the UK and we would recommend that you use an ATM card from home. Anglia Ruskin will provide you with the document you need to open an account but only after you have fully registered. As it can take a few days to open your account remember to bring a small amount of cash with you, some traveller s cheques or your ATM debit card. Full information on how to open an account will be given to you on arrival. 14

15 General healthcare advice The UK is a fairly healthy place to live and you should remain in good health throughout your period of study. If you do require continual medical treatment you are advised to see your own doctor before you leave your home country and explain that you will be living in the UK. You should make sure that you bring details of your condition and treatment and sufficient medication to last until you can register with a UK doctor. If you wear glasses it is advisable to bring a spare pair with you in case they get lost or damaged. You are also advised to have a medical check-up before leaving home as you may be charged for treatment for any illness or medical condition you already have when you entered the UK. Private Medical Insurance It is advisable to check whether you will be covered by your own medical insurance from your home country during your time in the UK. If not, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you take out extra private comprehensive medical insurance to cover your stay in the UK before you travel especially if you are in the UK for less than six months. Information can also be given once you arrive but you may find that purchasing an insurance policy in your home country is normally less expensive. Using the British National Health Service (NHS) In 2015 the rules changed for non EU and EU students so please read the information carefully and follow the links highlighted for more information. Tier 4 students If you have been granted a Tier 4 visa to study in the UK for more than 6 months you will have paid the Immigration Health Surcharge ( 150 per 12 months study) as part of your visa application. This charge will give you access to our state run health service called the National Health Service (NHS). This means that you are entitled to free medical treatment at a doctor s surgery or in hospital for any new conditions that arise during your stay using the Government-funded National Health Service (NHS). For more advice visit; Short Term Study visa holders (6 months) If you are studying here for less than 6 months you will be charged for treatment in the UK and you should therefore make sure that you have adequate private medical insurance before you travel to the UK. EEA nationals, Swiss nationals and their family Although we may have a reciprocal health agreement you will only be entitled free treatment if it is considered medically necessary and if you have evidence of EU rights, for example a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC). You need to apply for that in your home country before you travel as a EHIC cannot be obtained here unless you are a UK citizen. Further advice can be found at: Medical-treatment Registering with a doctor You will be given information when you arrive at our University. In Cambridge we have a Medical Centre on campus. In Chelmsford there is a doctor s surgery very close to the campus. Prescription charges If you are prescribed medication by the doctor you will pay a charge 8.60 for each medicine that is prescribed by a doctor. Dental treatment Treatment in the UK is very expensive so we advise that you have a check-up at home before you travel to the UK. If you need private dental care here having private medical insurance will help to avoid big bills. Medical insurance Private medical insurance is highly recommended even if you are eligible for free healthcare. Our National Health Service will not cover all costs in the event of a serious illness that requires you to be flown home. 15

17 How your course is organised Our University has a modular curriculum which includes a range of courses each with a specific award/course or title. The course is made up of modules, usually worth 15 or 30 credits which for a normal full-time programme for an undergraduate student will consist of 120 Anglia Ruskin University credits per year or 60 credits per semester. For postgraduate students your studies will normally consist of 180 credits: Anglia Ruskin University modules are available at 4 levels: Level 4 - Equivalent to first year full time undergraduate study Level 5 - Normally taken by second year students Level 6 - Equivalent to third and final year of full-time undergraduate study Level 7 - Equivalent to Postgraduate study Studying in the UK may be different from what you are used to. It is likely that you will spend a lot less time in formal lectures and teacher-directed learning than you did in your home country. You can normally expect to have a two-hour formal teaching session per module each week. Depending on the subject you are studying this may be complemented with a one or two hour seminar, workshop, computing or laboratory session. It is expected that students will spend about 25 or more hours per week developing their learning beyond these organised teaching sessions. All students at our University are expected to be committed and resourceful and to take responsibility for their own progress. We do recognise that you will want and need information, advice and guidance to make the most of your studies and we provide facilities through your Personal Tutor or Student Adviser. We realise that some international students may need to make a lot of adjustments at the beginning of a course. We also realise that sometimes staff assume that you understand when you are unsure. You can help us to help you by using the services that are available. In British culture we expect people to ask if they are unsure and let us know if they are not satisfied or need help. Support for students An introduction to our services is offered as part of the International & EU Orientation Programme along with full details on social and sporting activities, Students Union facilities and cultural events. Every student is entitled to guidance and counselling on all aspects which affect their studies: For academic choice, regulations and assessment consult a Student Adviser or your Personal Tutor For study skills workshops (Study Skills Plus) Career and employment advice, health issues, guidance on managing your money and personal issues go to Student Services Our University Library also provides support and advice with your self-directed learning For visa extensions and specialist advice on working and health entitlements visit an International Student Adviser in the International Office. 17
