For International students who will be living in Liverpool during the summer of 2022, the University and Guild of Students are offering a range of events, workshops and activities designed to help students make the most of their time.
In addition, information and advice is available, both in person and online, to provide international students with all they need to know about living in Liverpool on a budget, finding part-time jobs, and how the University can help them during the summer period.

The activities are open to everyone – some are free, some you need to pay for, some you can just pop along to, and some need signing up for in advance.
