Financial support for your child

We understand the rising cost of living can be tough. That's why we offer one-to-one financial guidance to help your child manage their money. We also provide a variety of bursaries and scholarships to help reduce university costs.

Ensuring your child’s wellbeing

Student wellbeing is vitally important to us so if someone’s struggling, we make sure they can get support as soon as possible. It’s quick, go online and complete a self-referral form or attend one of our regular wellbeing drop-in sessions.

Supporting students with additional needs

We believe that every student should have the opportunity to succeed regardless of their personal challenges. If your child has additional needs, they will find plenty of tailored support available to them.

Award-winning employability support

Already thinking about where a university degree can take your child? Whether they have a dream job in mind or are still considering their options, we will help them gain the skills, confidence and experience they need to launch a successful career.

Safety-first accommodation

If your child will be living away from home while at university, it’s important they feel safe and secure in their new accommodation. As a resident in student halls, they’ll benefit from 24/7 security, extensive CCTV.

Book an Open Day

It's important that you and your child feel confident about their choice of university. So why not visit us on an Open Day and get to know us in person? Speak with staff and students, explore the campus, get a taste of what it's like to study here.
