Monday, Wednesday, Friday (1pm - 3pm)

Please note: our drop-in on Friday 24 April will start at 1:30pm.

Already have an open case? Please contact your assigned adviser directly rather than attending a drop-in.

Drop-ins provide initial advice for new queries only. We may require further documents following your drop-in before we can advise on your individual situation.

During busy drop-in periods, we may be unable to see every student. In these cases, please ask us online or visit another drop-in.
