Student Communities
We are keen to make sure every student, including those who belong to the communities below, get the most out of their University experience.
The Student Communities programme is funded through the University's Access and Participation Plan and offered to UK (Home) undergraduate students.
We also support LGBTQ+ students and students from a Gypsy, Roma or Traveller background
The Student Communities programme includes the following for UK (Home) undergraduate students:
- Support for new students:
- Subsidised social events during term time
- A weekly newsletter highlighting different ways to get involved in university life as well as support you can access.
Am I eligible for the Student Communities programme?
If you are a Home (UK) Undergraduate student who belongs to one of the Student Communities listed above then you are automatically eligible for the support we offer to new undergraduates.
When you complete the University’s online enrolment/ re-enrolment task (at the start of the academic year) providing you tell us that you belong to one of the Student Communities listed above then you should automatically receive our weekly Student Communities newsletter which will enable you to find out about the events and support we offer.
There is also an opportunity to tell us that you belong to one of our Student Communities later on in the academic year by completing our ‘Student Communities Registration Form’. Once this has been submitted we will add your details to our mailing list. You can of course opt out of receiving Student Communities mailings from us at anytime.
