We want you to be as successful as you can be, so we’ve put together some useful videos that will give you the information you need in order to settle in to university life and to hit the ground running.

Each week we will release a series of videos. Some of these will have an academic focus including tips from our team of study mentors, whilst others will cover the more practical aspects of university life, including how to adjust to living away from home and looking after your well-being.
