Ukraine – Urgent Warning to Evacuate

Ukraine – Urgent Warning to Evacuate

Due to the growing threat of Russian military actions against Ukraine, the UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office and U.S. Department of State have instructed yesterday, January 24, 2021, their embassy staff and dependents to depart from Ukraine. As a response to the escalated situation, the previous Travel Advice for Ukraine has been elevated to ‘Level Four – Do Not Travel’.

SME will continue providing updated information on the latest developments. Nonetheless, due to the growing uncertainty, it is highly recommended that students consider evacuating the country. For those who will chose to stay, we advise that they stay vigilant and follow the guidelines of the local embassies.

We welcome all students who have been alarmed by the renewed crisis and are considering continuing their studies in a more stable environment to contact us immediately, so that we can suggest alternative options and arrange their transfer to the University of their choice in time for the March entry.
