Accommodation
Living on campus
Most students in their first year live on campus in halls of residence. If you're an international student we'll give you priority for this. If for any reason we can't find a place for you in our halls of residence on campus, our student services team will help you to find private accommodation that's near to the university.
Living in private accommodation
In your second, third and fourth years of study, we'll help you to find a place to live that's near to the university. We'll help you to find accommodation that can include your family, if that's necessary.
Council Tax
In the UK, people have to pay for local services (such as police and libraries) through Council Tax. If you are living with other students, on or off campus, and are in full-time education you won't have to pay Council Tax. If you are living with a partner who can't work or claim benefits as part of their visa, then they won't have to pay council tax either. You may be required to prove that you're a student to the local council or your immigration status to a landlord (if you're renting private accommodation near to the university). We can help you with this.
一、住所
1、住在校園里
大多數(shù)學(xué)生在第一年住在校園內(nèi)的居住地。如果您是國際學(xué)生,我們會優(yōu)先考慮這一點(diǎn)。如果由于任何原因,我們在校園里的居住地不能找到一個地方讓您居住,我們的學(xué)生服務(wù)團(tuán)隊(duì)將幫助您找到靠近大學(xué)的私人住宿。
2、住私房
在您的第二,第三,四年的學(xué)習(xí)中,我們將幫助您找到靠近大學(xué)的住所。如果有必要,我們將幫助您找到可以包括您的家庭的住宿。
3、家庭稅
在英國,人們必須通過理事會稅來支付當(dāng)?shù)氐姆?wù)(如警察和圖書館)。如果你和其他學(xué)生住在校外或在校外,并且正在接受全日制教育,你將不必繳納家庭稅。如果你和一個不能工作的人合作生活,或者要求他們作為簽證的一部分,那么他們也不必繳納家庭稅。您可能需要證明您是本地理事會的學(xué)生或您的房東的移民身份(如果您在大學(xué)附近租用私人住宿)。我們可以幫助您。
Academic life
Studying at university in the UK may be different to what you're used to in your own country. Courses are normally split up into 'modules' which cover different topics within the overall subject you're studying. These modules are usually taught in lectures to large groups and followed up by tutorial sessions with smaller groups. You may get the chance to see what you're learning in action with a trip to a neighbouring farm, environmental project or something appropriate to your studies.To help you get settled into academic life in the UK, we'll invite you to a pre-sessional programme. This takes place before the start of the academic year and is designed to introduce you to life in the UK and help you prepare to study at Harper Adams. For some students, attending the pre-sessional programme may be mandatory.
English language support
If English is not your first language, you can access our English language support services. These include classes, one-to-one sessions and pre-sessional English language courses. We'll tell you more about these services when you apply, but you can also get in touch with us if you have any questions.
二、學(xué)術(shù)生活
在英國大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)可能與您在自己國家習(xí)慣的學(xué)習(xí)有所不同。課程通常分為“模塊”,涵蓋您正在學(xué)習(xí)的整體科目中的不同主題。這些模塊通常在大型課堂上講授,并跟隨較小組的輔導(dǎo)課程。你可能有機(jī)會看到你正在學(xué)習(xí)的行動,去鄰近的農(nóng)場,環(huán)境項(xiàng)目或適合你的學(xué)習(xí)的東西。為了幫助您在英國進(jìn)入學(xué)術(shù)生涯,我們將邀請您參加一個會前課程。這是在學(xué)年開始之前進(jìn)行的,旨在向您介紹英國的生活,并幫助您準(zhǔn)備在哈珀亞當(dāng)斯學(xué)習(xí)。對于一些學(xué)生,參加會前課程可能是強(qiáng)制性的。
英語支持
如果英語不是您的第一語言,您可以訪問我們的英語支持服務(wù)。這些課程包括課程,一對一課程和會前英語語言課程。如果您有任何問題,我們會在申請時(shí)告訴您有關(guān)這些服務(wù)的更多信息,但如果您有任何問題,您也可以聯(lián)系我們。
Contacting home
Public phones
We have four public phones that you can use on campus, and you'll find others in nearby towns and cities. You may need to buy an international phone card from a local shop to use these, but some accept coins (£1, 50p, 20p, 10p).
Mobile phones
There are many mobile phone networks in the UK. The main ones are O2, Three, EE and Vodafone. They all offer 'pay as you go' SIM cards with no contract. It's best to look at the different offers and tariffs to find the best deal for you. We also include a free Lebara SIM card with every welcome pack, which you can use if you like.
Post
The postal service in the UK is good value and reliable. To post letters or postcards, you'll need to buy stamps (from a Post Office or shop), attach them to the top-right corner and post your item in a postbox. For larger items such as parcels or packages, you'll need to take them to a Post Office. Here you can also send items using secure or quick delivery services.
Skype and email
If you're staying in our halls of residence, we'll give you access to Wi-Fi internet for free, so you may want to use a free video calling program like Skype to speak to friends and family at home. You'll also be given a university email address, which you can use to keep in touch.
三、跟家里的聯(lián)系
1、公用電話
我們有四個公共電話,你可以在校園里使用,你會發(fā)現(xiàn)附近的城市和城市的其他人。您可能需要從本地商店購買國際電話卡以使用這些卡,但有些則接受硬幣(£1,50p,20p,10p)。
2、手機(jī)
在英國有很多手機(jī)網(wǎng)絡(luò)。主要是O2,Three,EE和Vodafone。他們都提供pay as you goSIM 卡。最好看看不同的優(yōu)惠和關(guān)稅,為您找到最好的交易。我們還包括一個免費(fèi)的Lebara SIM卡,每個歡迎包,如果你喜歡你可以使用。
3、郵政
英國的郵政服務(wù)價(jià)值和可靠性很好。要發(fā)郵件或明信片,您需要購買郵票(從郵局或商店),將其附加到右上角,并將郵件發(fā)送到郵箱中。對于較大的物品,如包裹,您需要將其帶到郵局。在這里,您還可以使用安全或快速的送貨服務(wù)發(fā)送商品。
4、Skype和電子郵件
如果您住在我們的居住地,我們可以免費(fèi)使用Wi-Fi網(wǎng)絡(luò),所以您可能想使用免費(fèi)的Skype視頻通話程序與家人和家人聊天。您還將獲得大學(xué)電子郵件地址,您可以使用它來保持聯(lián)系。
Health and hospitals
In the UK, the National Health Service (NHS) provides hospitals, doctors and dentists.
If you're from a country that's outside of the EU, you'll need to pay £150 per year to access the NHS. You do this when you apply for your visa. This gives you access to free health treatment (including emergency and hospital care) and NHS dental treatment at a reduced cost. You can find further information on this on the UK Government website.
If you're from a country inside the EU, make sure you have a European Health Insurance card, as you'll need this to access the NHS.
We have a doctors' surgery on campus Monday to Friday (term-time) and there's a local doctors' surgery in Newport. The Princes Royal Hospital near Telford is the closest hospital.
四、健康和醫(yī)院
在英國,國民健康服務(wù)局(NHS)為醫(yī)院,醫(yī)生和牙醫(yī)提供服務(wù)。如果您來自歐盟以外的國家,您需要每年支付150英鎊才能使用NHS。當(dāng)你申請簽證時(shí),你這樣做。這使您可以以更低的成本獲得免費(fèi)的健康治療(包括緊急和醫(yī)院護(hù)理)和NHS牙科治療。您可以在英國政府網(wǎng)站上找到有關(guān)這方面的更多信息。
如果您來自歐盟境內(nèi)的一個國家,請確保您擁有歐洲健康保險(xiǎn)卡,因?yàn)槟枰@張卡才能進(jìn)入NHS。我們在星期一至星期五(上課時(shí)間)在校園進(jìn)行醫(yī)生手術(shù),在紐波特有一名當(dāng)?shù)氐尼t(yī)生手術(shù)。特爾福德附近的王子王子醫(yī)院是最近的醫(yī)院。

The nearest banks to the university are Lloyds TSB, NatWest, HSBC and Barclays.

If you need to exchange foreign currency, you can do this at most high street banks or at a Post Office. For Euros and US Dollars you can usually do this on the same day, but for other currencies you may have to call up in advance.
