would be very grateful if you could complete the online survey<br />

“It is a very good idea to organise this kind <strong>of</strong> week for international students because all <strong>of</strong> the students<br />

attending are in the same situation and have the same questions and fears. It was great for students to have some<br />

time to get to know each other before starting classes and was a good way <strong>of</strong> easing into the lifestyle here.”<br />
