In the face of challenges brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, Swansea University continues to reassure students, parents, and guardians of a better university experience in September.
As health restrictions tone down little by little, the university is working toward providing its students with fully supported and safe academic and social experiences with its welcoming of students next month.
Key Takeaways:
- Swansea University works closely to bring international students to the campus with a promise of a better social and academic experience.
- The university is looking forward to safely welcoming students next month.
- Swansea University has prepared several social activities and meet-and-greet sessions for international students.
To ensure the safety and well-being of the Swansea University community, it intends to maintain the social distancing protocols especially that the institution is focusing on providing in-person instruction and small seminar groups for students.
While eyeing to provide opportunities for students to complete practical tasks face-to-face, the university is also looking into sustaining blended learning.
This year, a lot of social activities await international students as there are 120 societies and 50 sports clubs where they can sign up for during the Freshers’ Fair. Freshtival, an event for new arrivals, is also being prepared to provide students with information covering the university and the community.
Aside from the face-to-face meet and greet opportunities, international students will also have the opportunity to maximize their social experiences at the fully opened gyms and outdoor locations where they can do running, climbing, and watersports.
With Swansea University being ranked 12th in the UK for student satisfaction, it is anticipated that applications will be competitive especially next year, following the university’s persistent recruitment drive.
While potential students may think of deferring their course at Swansea because of the current health situation, the university has assured that students will get a more “back-to-normal experience.”
The university’s services to the students have never been impacted by the pandemic. In fact, Swansea University has continued its pastoral and mental health services, online sessions, and how-to sessions to help students prepare themselves for university life, and even offering the Swansea University English Language Test (SWELT), the university’s own English language test.
Swansea University has given its word to students, parents, and guardians to provide safe, happy, and top-rated quality education and university experience even amid the pandemic.
