Tip: Make sure everything you own you keep in your room if you don't want it frozen for pranks Meeting New People: go to all the freshers events, socialise within your halls, as well as during your lectures and seminars Move-In: Try to find people in your halls so you don't buy the same thing - most unis have pages once accommodation opens for you to look for one another

Lots of events were planned, different themes so there was something for everyone and gave you time to get to know your flat. Freshers ball was really good with big acts performing.

Very easy to adapt to friendly faces all round great uni top quality facilities and amazing views. Waking up going for an early walk on the beach, cycling in and around town then getting an ice cold beverage at the uni grounds

Swansea has a great freshers weeks that allows students to really get to know each other. Flat parties every night. And I met my GF during it so really was a good freshers for me

Freshers week was very fun, it lasted two weeks long and i went out for 11/14 nights! I thoroughly enjoyed swansea’s nightlife and was very impressed with the events they had on! Sigala came and performed on campus and that was very fun. Wind street is a brilliant night out and very inexpensive, I totally recommend Swansea University for the nightlife and social aspect, it is also a very good university so the nightlife is a bonus

Freshers was a good 2 weeks in Swansea there would also be other activities planned like trips to Ikea and the Gowers, one Top I would give to new students is get the bus earlier than others to avoid waiting in the bus queue for over an hour.

There was a good range of activities to do such as going to the Gowers, lively nights out and also freshers ball, a tip I would give to new students get the bus early otherwise you’ll be waiting for the bus for over an hour.

Enjoyable week filled with firsts ranging from first meeting with flatmates and fellow students in their selected living arrangements. Spending money almost seems to be part of the week and difficult to dodge, unless aiming to remain below the radar. In other words unsociable to save money.

Great events, well organised, travel was simple, safe and met many people. Moving in was well structured, made it very easy. Found all the facilities easily, even if they were very basic.
