Peer-to-peer engagement

Unibuddy enables prospective students to interact with your current students, allowing them to ask questions and develop a sense of connection with your university or college whilst they do their research.

Postgraduate fees and funding

Postgraduate fees can vary a lot, and funding isn’t always straightforward. Here's the info you need, including funding options, and where to find support.

Supporting students with mental health conditions

Students can access a variety of support to manage their mental health and wellbeing in higher education - ranging from help with a specific condition through to ways they can look after their general wellbeing. Some students may be hesitant to tell their university, so we've worked with experts (including Student Minds and the University Mental Health Advisers' Network (UMHAN)) to explain the process of declaration to your students, and offer practical ways to help them manage the transition to independence. It's good to remember that other personal circumstances can create additional challenges and stress, so making sure students have the right support for their needs will offer them the best start to university.
