Hi everyone! (:
As you may have heard, there are some Pre-Departure Events being held throughout July in Singapore! These events include talks by various vendors (e.g. British Council) and University of Birmingham representatives (e.g. our International Officer, Katy Friend) that will tell you many things about University - both across the UK and in the University of Birmingham specifically.
Be prepared to meet past and present EXCO members at all the various events! We are excited to meet you and answer any questions you may have about the UK and University. Do join our Facebook group at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/singsocfreshers1819 if you'll be coming to Birmingham in 2018/19!
