On arrival in the UK all overseas students will have to go
through immigration control to confirm they are authorised
to enter the UK for the purpose of study. It is therefore essential
that all overseas students bring with them the
Confirmation of Acceptance letter from ICON College, together
with evidence of financial support/sponsorship (such as a copy of a bank
draft,or a letter to cover the cost for at least the first year of your
study in the UK), as the Immigration Officer at the port of
arrival may wish to see them.
Students should also bring with them sufficient cash, in pounds
sterling, to meet their expenses on arrival for transport,
meals, and temporary accommodation. For students who have not
reserved any accommodation we suggest that they arrive in
London during normal office hours (9.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m.) on a
week-day and contact the College immediately on arrival so that
arrangements may be made to find them temporary and/or permanent
accommodation. We can arrange to meet overseas students at the
airport and arrange temporary accomodation, provided we are advised in advance, before you leave
your country of residence.
Students arriving at Heathrow airport are advised to use the
London Underground (Tube) Piccadilly Line from Heathrow
Airport, changing at Hammersmith station (District Line), to Aldgate East station, which is close to the College. Students arriving at Gatwick airport should take the
British Rail train to Victoria station, from where they can use the London Underground District Line to Aldgate East station, which is within easy
walking distance of the College.
