A very warm welcome to Sheffield Hallam University, we look forward to meeting you here in Sheffield.
Arrival times for students starting in January 2025
To arrive in good time for International Orientation and your course induction, you should aim to arrive in Sheffield by Sunday 12 January 2025 at the latest. If you arrive at Manchester Airport between 9 – 12 January you will benefit from the free airport pick up service.
If you are arriving outside our Meet and Greet desk opening times, the main University buildings might be closed. You can call our 24-hour helpline on 0800 073 1318. Make a note of this before you travel. You should also contact your landlord in advance to confirm your arrival time.
If you are an international postgraduate taught or undergraduate applicant, you are required to pay £3,000 deposit before you receive your Confirmation of Acceptance for Study (CAS) from Sheffield Hallam University. You will then also pay an additional £5,000 before you enrol at the University. Your payment amount may differ, please click on the below button for more information on paying your fees.
Before you arrive in the UK you can join our online Pre-departure Briefings, live Q&A sessions, or watch video presentations. Get answers to your preparation and arrival questions.
Once you are in Sheffield, visit our on-campus International Meet & Greet desk with your questions, as many times as you need.
If you are studying in the UK under a Student visa you will need to activate your eVisa before you get your immigration documents checked and enrol. From 6 January, the International Experience team will be offering a daily support workshop at 3pm if you have any questions about how to do this.
Before attending a workshop, please activate your Hallam I.T. account and connect your device to University Wi-Fi.
To book in for the eVisa Workshop please contact Hallam Help by phone or at a help point. Once you're booked in, you will be told the location of the workshop.
All students who have declared a nationality which is not British or Irish must attend an on-campus document checking appointment as part of the enrolment process.
