Student communities

We offer a bespoke programme of support to help undergraduate students from different backgrounds get the most out of their university experience. The Student Communities programme includes subsidised social events during term time and a weekly newsletter highlighting different ways to get involved in university life.

Support with finances

If you are a learner on the direct entry programme and facing financial difficulty, you may be eligible for assistance funding in the form of an emergency loan and/or a non-repayable award.

If you are facing issues with your student finance or difficulties managing your money, our Student Support Team can help. They offer budgeting support, liaison with student finance bodies, and can also advise on options for financial assistance and other support that may be available.

If you face financial difficulty, you may be eligible for assistance funding in the form of an emergency loan and/or a non-repayable award.
