Being an international student is exciting, but it can also be challenging.

The college has a designated Student Support Officer who can be approached to gain advice on academic and personal issues. The Student Support Officer offers professional and confidential advice in areas where they can help. All the service provided by student support for student welfare is free of cost. They can also provide links to external sources of support where the college is not qualified.
