Hi there @Navsaini - firstly, I'm sorry to hear that your Grandmother has not been well recently. It is great news that you are able to go home and be with your family for the function in December, to be together :redface:

I would advise that as you will be gone for less than one week, as your Faculty Advice Centre has said, this will be okay. Our term here at DMU would conclude, as per our Academic Calendar (here), on the 15th of December 2023. For direct confirmation and support for any study you may miss during your absence please do reach out to the team in your Faculty Advice Centre again :rolleyes:

Best wishes,

@Navsaini You're very welcome! I would advise that, on a student VISA, you should be allowed to complete full-time work outside of Term Time during your Holidays. :smile:

To confirm this, you can find more detailed information about working during your studies from the UK Council for International Student Affairs (UKCISA).

Our January term begins again, after the seasonal break over December, on the 8th of January as you have mentioned. For direct confirmation and support for any study you may miss during your absence please do reach out to the team in your Faculty Advice Centre again :rolleyes: here: www.dmu.ac.uk/current-students/student-resources/student-advice-centres.aspx
