UCL's International Student Support and Affiliate team, part of Student Support and Wellbeing Services, are excited to be hosting a trip to the British Museum for international students on Wednesday 21 January 2026.
If you're an international or affiliate student, this is a great opportunity to meet other students in a similar position to you, get to know the International Student Support team, and also visit the amazing British Museum, which is only a 15-minute walk from Bloomsbury Campus.
You will meet the team at 14:00 outside the UCL Student Centre and then walk as a group to the British Museum. We recommend you spend an hour in the British Museum, but it is up to you, and you can leave at any point. If you would like to walk back with the International Student Support team after the event, they will let you know where to meet them and would be very happy to walk with you back to campus at 15:30.
When you arrive at the designated meeting point, you'll be split into groups and given your 'Scavenger Hunt' activity. There will be prizes for the Fastest Team and the Most Creative Team. There will also be a Social Media Influence Award for an individual student.Full details of the activity will be briefed to you on the day.
This is a relaxed and fun event, and all international students are welcome! Please feel free to bring friends, or come on your own! Our events are open to everyone and are a great opportunity to meet new people in a relaxed, friendly and inclusive setting. Members of the Student Support and Wellbeing Services team will be there to support you in making these connections with others too. We look forward to meeting you!
