Are you studying in Glasgow or participating in a student exchange?
Going to another city or country as part of your studies is a huge opportunity, and we want to help you make the most of your time in Glasgow. We can help you to:
get to know the city so you can understand its quirks and delights
learn how things work so you can quickly feel at home and confidently explore
discover the places that you'll particularly love, in line with what you care about
get to know locals so you feel like you belong
We've been working with students and apprentices coming to Glasgow since 2010 - organising integrating experiences, giving orientations and delivering cultural programmes and study visits. Since 2022, we've also worked with local students on tours, projects, advice and general support.
We can offer a variety of opportunities from casual to in-depth, all to give you an experience of the heart of Glasgow. š
If you're coming from another country, this is our most immersive offer - getting to live in a Scottish home, work with a Scottish organisation and really experience life in Glasgow. We'll design a package just for you to fit your interests and look after you the whole way.
If you're arriving in Glasgow for your studies, finding a place to stay can be a challenge. If you would like to really experience the culture as you settle in, we can offer host families that provide a welcoming base with chats over dinner where you can discuss your day, get tips and learn about the culture.
When you come to a new city, it's easy to just go to the obvious places with everyone else, but Glasgow is overflowing with special places to fit different passions. Whether it's our "Which Neighbourhood is for You?" quiz, our Virtual Tours of Glasgow, or in-person tours with your friends, we'll help you find the right places in Glasgow that you will love!

"Absolutely do an intership here!! It was an amazing experience. You will have a lot of interesting places to visit and different restaurants and learn about their culture. Amazingly, everyone is welcome here and you can say People make Glasgow."
"Hi! I had the chance to live with a host family for three months while studying, though Erasmus Mundus at the University of Glasgow. Thanks to Sabrina, I got to meet amazing people from different cultural backgrounds, experience the city through the eyes of locals, and most importantly, feel safe and supported the whole time."
