CamGuides: Welcome to Cambridge

This section of CamGuides has provided you with information to help you settle into your new university, and your new city, with confidence. The key messages included:

• Cambridge is a brilliant place to live and study, and while you'll get your bearings in Cambridge once you've arrived, you can research the city before you arrive.
• There are well over a hundred libraries in Cambridge - it's worth exploring the websites of at least your college library, your subject library, and the University Library before coming to Cambridge.
• Getting an overview of the support available to you as a University of Cambridge student is a good use of your time - lots of information is provided on the Useful websites page.
