Social Activities & Weekends

Yes you will have spare time!

You must attend morning academic sessions and your chosen optional afternoon classes but you will have free time to go and explore the campus, work on your assignments and homework, play sport or watch a movie with friends in the dorm.

After dinner join in the evening activities we will have on offer for you and afterwards you can relax in the student lounge. Some of the activities undertaken in the past include:

  • A Designer outlet trip to get all the best bargains on clothes, sportswear and shoes.
  • Film nights with the latest releases from Blockbusters.
  • Talent or Karaoke night - show us your talents and join in.
  • International BBQ evening - chat and enjoy a hamburger and a soda with your new friends.
  • Play a choice of sports including Soccer, Frisbee, Volleyball or Basketball or go for a work out in the gym.
  • Quiz nights - get involved in friendly competitions organised by your student advisors.

And many more…

What Students Said

"The camp was a life changing experience; I met so many people from different countries and learnt how to be much more independent. I now feel fully prepared for my senior year. I had an amazing time and I would recommend this program to anyone!"
