The Student Hub

Bookable online appointments will be available Monday to Friday:

• Student guidance advisors 9.30am – 3.30pm
• Disability co-ordinators 10.00 – 3pm

If you need to talk to an advisor on the same day, please use our bookings form or contact the studenthub@staffs.ac.uk or call 01782 294751

Short appointments offer a short meeting with a student advisor or disability advisor. A Student Advisor or Disability Coordinator will aim to address your immediate needs and concerns during your meeting.
If a shorter session may not address all your needs, this can be followed up with a further appointment, as necessary.

Appointments provide space for you to get support with any aspect of your life and are available on different ways such as telephone call, video call or text messaging. 

 Our Advisors are trained to support students with a range of both emotional and practical matters.

The kinds of things students come to see Student Advisors about include: feeling homesick, having difficulties settling in, feeling things aren’t going the way you’d expected, housing problems, feeling anxious about seminars, concerns about study skills, money worries, health concerns, and many other situations that may be impacting on your studies. There might be a specific issue you want advice on, or perhaps you are feeling conflicted and there is something you’d like to talk over.

An appointment with an Advisor can also provide you with academic guidance, immigration advice, and information and assistance with University processes, such as taking a break from your studies.

Remember, we are here to offer advice and guidance on issues or concerns you may have throughout your time as a student at Staffordshire University.

• Student information advisors
