British Council India is organising pre-departure briefings for Indian students who have received a confirmed offer from a UK institution for the September 2013 intake. These sessions will guide students about basic dos and don’ts while preparing themselves to lead an international student life.

The briefings will entail interactive session with UK alumni, a session by UKBA and a talk on student life in the UK. This is an opportunity for students to learn and share UK alumni’s experiences, gather information about visas and immigration and network with students like them who have enrolled to study at a UK institution and maybe the same institution as them.

The dates are as below:
Delhi: 5 and 26 July (student can choose one date)
Mumbai: 6 July
Hyderabad: 8 July
Chennai: 10 July
Bangalore: 12 July
Pune: 15 July
Ahmedabad: 22 July
Kolkata: 31 July

Kindly share the details of the pre-departure briefings with those Indian students who will be starting a course at your respective institution in 2013.
