New students are invited to come to a relaxed and informal Freshers’ Event this summer, to help you prepare for university and make new friends before you arrive. 

Hear from current and former students about living and studying at Cambridge. Bring your questions and leave with information and advice from those who know what you are going through.

More events will be added to the schedule throughout the summer, so check back here regularly for updates.

If you are unable to attend a Freshers’ Event, or can’t find an event near you, why not contact any of the 430+ Alumni Groups worldwide for information and advice? Or join a Cambridge Facebook group for new students, such as Cambridge University International Freshers 2019, run by the Cambridge University Students Union (CUSU).

There will be lots of events for new students in Cambridge when you arrive, such as the Freshers Fair organised by CUSU and the International Freshers Week, organised by CUSU International (iCUSU), a branch of CUSU. These are in addition to events at your College.
