Book an appointment

The Student Advice Centre is independent from the University; so we can offer fully impartial, professional advice. We aim to help you find the best steps you need to take in order to remedy any situation. We follow a strict confidentiality policy, so you can be open and honest about any problems.

You can book a 40-45 minute appointment with us by using our online form, calling, emailing or just popping in. For quick queries during term time, we offer 15 minute drop in appointments at varying times through the week. Please check our availability as drop in sessions are subject to change.

If you require any adjustments during the appointment please let us know when you're booking in.

If the SAC is closed and your issue is urgent, please refer to our useful contacts below.

Confidentiality

Info for parents

We know you worry about your sons and daughters whilst they are at University, however we are a confidential service and therefore we cannot discuss any student details with parents. Furthermore, as we are a student service unfortunately we are unable to provide direct advice to parents or any third party.
