Chaplaincy

Our multi-faith community welcomes students from a diverse range of backgrounds. Our chaplaincy at our main campus in Ipswich is open to staff and students of all faiths and no faith.

Counselling

We can provide independent, impartial and professional counselling, or we can signpost you to the appropriate support services. Our counselling support is confidential and offers you the opportunity to discuss issues such as exam anxiety, low mood, stress, relationships and personal issues.

Disability support

We are here to support you if you have a disability, a mental health difficulty, or a specific learning need. We aim to create an environment that is accessible and inclusive for all students. We will work with you to ensure that appropriate individual support is in place and advise you on your eligibility for Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA). Your individual needs and support arrangements can be discussed before you start your course or at any time during your studies.

Health and wellbeing

We can provide guidance on how to register with a local GP, as well as how to access sexual health and wellbeing services. Maintaining good mental and physical health is important and we offer as much help as we can to support your life as a student.

Financial support

Our expert Advisers can support you with financial advice during your studies and we have partnered with Blackbullion, an e-learning platform which can equip you with money skills and help you with financial planning.

Mentoring and student life advice

Student Life Mentors are experienced students who can offer support and information about the University. They also organise activities to help you to learn more about university life and meet new people. Student Life Advisers are here to make your transition to postgraduate study as smooth as possible.
