How to request a Buddy

You can request a Student Buddy from Thursday 1st August 2024 on, once you have a confirmed place at University.

If you would like to hear from your Student Buddy in early September, before the start of the semester, then you need to have completed the Buddy Request Form by 11pm on Tuesday 27th August 2024. 

However you can still request a Buddy up until the 31st October 2024. So if once you're studying here you think you would benefit from the extra support of a Student Buddy, it's not too late to get involved in the scheme. 

Students who request a Student Buddy after 27th August will receive an email from a Student Buddy within a fortnight of their request being submitted. 

If you have any questions relating to our Student Buddying Scheme please contact: student-buddy@york.ac.uk.
