The service is very good; without it, I would not still be at university! Staff were very good and understanding.

The service is excellent in my view and I had...time to concentrate on my studies rather than my financial circumstances. As a result, I passed my modules with As & Bs. Thank you.

Staff feedback

On occasion, it has been my pleasure to work with the Financial Guidance Team based at the University in order to help resolve student financial issues smoothly and efficiently with and on behalf of my students. Their staff expertise and specialist knowledge has proven vital in order to facilitate access to teaching and learning for individuals, promoting an 'access for all' ethos and cementing the Universities accolade as best value-added University.

We find that students with outstanding debts often need help organising their finances and advice about what help they are entitled to apply for, Credit Control refer such students to the Financial Guidance team for their well founded advice and assistance.
