• Academic tutors: Every student has a tutor from the first semester who reviews progress regularly.
• Careers and progression: CV and interview practice, further study talks and placement matching.
• Personal counselling: Registered counsellors offer confidential support with stress, mental health or family matters.
• Special educational needs: Study and assessment adjustments agreed with you, such as extra exam time or assistive technology.
• Financial help: Apply to the institute's hardship fund or ask about government schemes.

The student services counter is staffed every day, and urgent cases are seen straight away.
