It's not all work!

You may come to CNWL to get a qualification or further your career, but the social aspect of college is important too and studying here provides a great opportunity to make new friends from all kinds of backgrounds. As a member of the Students' Union you can join in with a whole range of activities and events - a full list is provided in the Student Handbook which you will receive when you enrol.

International Students Programme of Events

We recognise that it can be particularly challenging to get to know people and places in a new country, so we put on a series of events throughout the academic year specifically for Intenational students, providing opportunities to visit some of the best sights London has to offer, get together with other students from around the world, and settle into life at CNWL.

• International Students Welcome Meeting / Social 
• Theatre trip 
• London Tourist Attractions Trip
• Tower of London Visit
• London Eye and Thames River Cruise
• Museum Visit
• Ice Skating at Alexandra Palace
• Houses of Parliament Visit
• Visa Workshop
• Theme Park Trips 

Student Profile: Gloria Dibs, Colombia

One of the best ways of improving your language skills is to watch television, Gloria Dibs has found. Though from South America, her heart is in England, because this is where she met her Lebanese husband while studying English and computing.

Gloria, 34, is studying for a one-year Diploma in Public Services Interpreting (DPSI) in Spanish, with Law Option, at the College’s Kilburn campus. She chose CNWL because it had an attractive modern building, a good library (LRC) and was conveniently located.

She would definitely recommend CNWL for the quality of the education and for its many activities for international students.
