We understand that being away from home and living in a different city or country can be scary for some people, but please do not be too concerned as we have a number of measures in place to help keep you safe and secure.
There are security staff on duty 24 hours a day on the main campus. Their main purpose is to ensure the security and safety of students, staff and buildings and regular patrols are carried out. If you need help at any time, you can contact security by going to their office on campus close to the main reception.
SafeZone makes it easy for you to get help or request assistance any time you're on campus or in university-owned student accommodation. It works 24/7 and will connect you directly with our Safety & Security Team if you need first aid, have an emergency or want to report something.
Our International Orientation programme is designed to help you settle into your new life at university. When you first arrive at ARU, you will be invited to join our Orientation Programme before the first week of teaching to help you navigate life in the UK.
