Travelling to the UK

It is a good idea to read the UKCISA guide to arriving in the UK, as it has very useful information on immigration, UK public transport, what money to bring with you and how you can call home once you arrive.

If your flight is due to arrive in the UK very late at night or early in the morning, you should check what transport will be available at those times:

Perhaps you may like to consider staying in a hotel at the airport over night, and travelling to university the next morning. You can find information about hotels based near Gatwick and Heathrow airports at:
