► About us
Advice Centre Administrator
Our administrator, Priti Narshi, will probably be the first person you come into contact with at the Student Advice Centre. Although the administrator is not an adviser, she can help you with any questions you may have about the Advice Centre and let you know how and when you can see an Adviser.
If you have come to the Advice Centre outside of a drop-in session, Priti will be also be able to direct you to alternative sources of information.
Generalist and Money Advisers
Our drop-in sessions are run by professional Generalist and Money advisers. The Advisers provide students with impartial and non-judgemental advice. All interviews are confidential.
Your time at University should be enjoyable and rewarding and not spoiled by unnecessary worries. As soon as you are aware of a problem seek help, and remember, it is never too late to ask for advice!
