More information for parents and guardians can be found on our webpage, however, it’s important to remember that when you come to University you do so as an adult. This means that whilst we’re happy to answer parents and guardians general questions at certain times, it may be that we have to discuss the topic with you personally due to data protection guidelines. The different teams at the University would be able to advise more on this, as it may depend on the questions that they have.
