Supporting you
A helping hand from us
So you’re thinking of making the move to the big city. How will you know what to pack? Will your collection of Furbies turn you into a laughing stock? Where on earth did you put your National Insurance card? If you’re nervous about leaving home, or bigger still moving country, there are plenty of resources at the University of Westminster to help you survive beyond the freshers’ fair.
Student Advice
The team at Student Advice is on hand to help with all your money-related matters. And as a student you’re bound to experience one or two financial difficulties at some point. Talk to them about your funding entitlement, scholarships, bursaries, benefits, budgeting and more.

Counselling Service
Our fully trained and experienced counsellors offer a one-to-one service to students plus group sessions where you can work through problems with like-minded others. It’s good to talk, and if something’s bothering you, you don’t have to grin and bear it.
