Advice and Guidance (including Careers, Chaplaincy, Health, and Welfare and Counselling)

The University of Suffolk and the University of Suffolk Students Union have worked together to develop a Student Charter.

The University of Suffolk is committed to being a student-centred higher education institution that strives to provide its students with the highest standards in teaching and learning, as well as high quality support and advice. The University of Suffolk Student Charter demonstrates this commitment, outlining what students can expect from staff at University of Suffolk, as well as what can be reasonably expected in return.

The Charter has been approved by Senate and the Executive Team and is kept under annual review.
