Academic Support
All our advisers are trained and experienced in dealing with the Academic procedures of the University. If you are not sure what to do in relation to something in your Academic life – or if you want to use a particular procedure but are not sure how to go about it and maximise your chances of success, we’re here to help.
When Things Go Wrong
We hope that everything goes well during your course and during your exams, but we understand that things sometimes do go wrong. If they do, don’t panic.
If things do go wrong, it's important to remember that you are not alone. You can seek help and support from your Personal Tutor, from the Student Centre, The Academic Skills Team as well as from us at Union Advice.
It is likely that if things go wrong, the University will refer you to Union Advice for advice: your first step should be to contact us to make an appointment.
If you require an appointment with our service please fill in our Union Advice Case Form and email it to unionadvice@city.ac.uk.

We also have self-help guides for each of those issues listed above which can be found here.
