Support at university!

Hi everyone! 👋As the UCAS application deadline approaches (🚨 Deadline: 29th January!), it's a great time to think about which university is the right fit for you. Whilst picking the right course is a tough decision, picking the university to study it at can be even harder! Something I considered was thinking about what support systems were available and whether there were any specific to my degree!

What’s available?
Academic Support - The transition to university can be difficult and having academic support really helps!

We have:

WISER: If you need extra help with things like essay writing and study skills, WISER is there to help you!

Library services: Our library offers access to extensive academic resources, online materials, and quiet study spaces. If you need help with research or finding resources, library staff are always available. It is also open 24/7 meaning you can study at times that work for you!

Mental Health and Wellbeing Wellbeing Support: We have a dedicated well-being team at the university which offer support for mental health and wellbeing whilst you’re at university!

Financial Support If you’re concerned about tuition fees, funding, or budgeting during your time at university, the amazing finance team can offer advice and support, including help with scholarships, grants, and student loans.

International Student Support
Coming to study in another country can be a really scary time but we have our dedicated team who can help you with everything from visa issues to adapting to life in the UK.

Good Luck with Your UCAS Application! Studying at a supportive place is just as important as picking a university with a great course! You can view more about what student support we have available here: https://www.uclan.ac.uk/support
