Support for current international students and their families on a range of matters relating to immigration and practical guidance when living and studying in the UK
The Team consists of International Student Adviser/Manager Susan Scott, International Student Adviser Matt Pawlowic, International Arrivals Coordinator Xuan Feng and IAS Administrator Gail Bankier.
We have produced a range of guides based on frequently asked questions, including:

- working after studies
- visits for family and friends
- living in the UK
If you need immigration advice or general guidance and support, please contact us by email and if you need an appointment, Matt or Susan will be happy to meet with you in person or online.
If you have private accommodation queries, email Xuan on internationalsupport@dundee.ac.uk
Please attend on time and bring any necessary documentation with you. If you are unable to attend, please inform us of this so that the appointment can go to another student.
You are also welcome to attend our drop-in sessions in the Global Room, Monday – Friday 11:00-13:00
We are here to help and support you with any questions you have.
