Starting university is exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming. Knowing where to find support can make a big difference.

This guide highlights essential student support services at university and explains how they help students succeed.

Student Wellbeing Support Services

Supporting your mental and emotional health is a key part of student life.

Main wellbeing services include:

Family Support Beyond Campus

Balancing university with family or caring responsibilities can be challenging. Some support services offer guidance to help manage responsibilities outside campus alongside academic life.

Family support services may include:

• Advice for students who are parents or carers

• Resources for balancing home life and study

• Links to external support networks for families

This ensures students can engage with their studies while meeting responsibilities off campus.

Peer Mentoring Services

Peer mentoring connects students with others who have experience in similar academic and social situations. This support service provides practical guidance and helps build confidence.

Core peer mentoring services:

• Experienced students act as mentors

• Informal guidance for academic and social challenges

• Peer networks for community and connection

Peer mentoring creates a supportive environment, especially in the first year.

Student Service Charter and Student Rights

Every student should understand their rights and expectations at university. The Student Service Charter outlines key standards, responsibilities, and the support students can request.

Key charter elements:

• Service standards you should expect

• Student rights on campus

• How to raise concerns or complaints

• Guidelines for fair treatment

Understanding this charter helps students access help confidently and ensures a fair experience for all.
