You’ve probably already got your housing sorted. If you’re staying in student accommodation, chances are your move-in date will fall in line with the start of the term or fresher's week. However, if you’re staying in private accommodation, you might need to negotiate your move-in date. If it’s after you arrive in the country, you can always pre-boo...
Once you arrive, go for walks around the area you’ll be living in. Find out where the supermarkets, grocery stores and local shops are. You could even do a small food shop to keep you going for a few days. Also, look out for restaurants and takeaways nearby to give you more options whilst you get settled.
One of the first things you’ll need to do when you move is to open a bank account. This might take a bit of time because you’ll need help and documentation from SOAS. You’ll need a SOAS bank letter and your passport. If you have a student visa, you’ll also need your BRP/evidence of your visa. You can request a SOAS bank letter here.

It’s best to prepar...
When you start packing, try not to bring heavy jackets, coats or boots from your home country. Not only do they take up a lot of space, but they also might not be as effective in the London weather as you expect them to be (especially if you’re coming from a warmer country). It’s best to buy these types of things once you arrive. Of course, you sho...
Luckily, London has amazing public transport. However, it is quite confusing if you’re using it for the first time and cabs can really burn a hole in your pocket. You should download Citymapper and the TFL apps to familiarise yourself with the routes and tube and bus times. You should think about getting an Oyster card, or alternatively, you can us...
