Can we help you?

We offer advice to all students currently registered at UCL. Our service is also available to:

  • prospective students who hold an offer for a UCL programme of study
  • recent graduates where there is an ongoing matter relating to their studies, for example a student complaint or disciplinary issue
  • students on interruption of studies with matters relating to their studies, for example returning to study and support to study
  • We can advise UCL students who are also UCL staff on matters relating to their student status, however we will refer to a staff trade union such as UCU or UCL HR for any matters relating to their role as a staff member

If you are a UCL or Union staff member making an enquiry on behalf of a student, please email us at [email protected]
