Parents and family

Guide for parents of international students

Choosing a university is a big decision for all new students and their parents. It is an exciting time and students are often thinking about everything from the social life to courses that they might enjoy studying. But as a parent or guardian, you probably have some questions of your own.

For instance, which UK universities offer the best education? How does the application process work? Will your son or daughter find it easy to settle in? How much will it cost? What is life like at the University of Kent? What's the best way to keep in touch?

We aim to answer many of your questions in our Guide for Parents of International Students. We take you through the most important steps, from choosing a course to graduation.
