If you are staying at home or renting locally then Freshers’ Week can sometime be hard to get into. Here’s our tips for making the most of Freshers’ Week as an off-campus student.

1. Make friends before you arrive – connect with other student on the Brunel Off Campus Facebook group

2. Get down to campus – come and meet other off-campus students and Union Contacts at the Off Campus Base Camp (on the quad), take part in as many events as you can and make new friends.

3. Enjoy the nightlife – we put on a free local shuttlebus to make sure you get home safe after the Freshers’ night-time events.

4. Don’t miss Freshers’ Fayre – it’s a fantastic time to see what the Union has to offer you. From sports clubs to societies and so much more (oh and don’t forget to check out the Off-Campus Students society!)
