Your Student Diary

This helps you plan the year ahead, organise your daily timetable and keep important dates and contacts close at hand. It also contains useful information about the College and student life in general.

If you haven't received one yet, please ask your tutor or contact the Student Advice Centre.

Your ID card

Every enrolled student is issued with a College ID Card. These may be required for access to some areas of the College, e.g. the Student Common Room. You should carry your ID Card with you at all times when in College and be prepared to produce it at the request of a member of staff.
