Welcome to the Student Survival Guide,a practical guide to the college experience provided by your Students' Union.

While we have tried to include something on many of the issues that may or may not affect you while in college, there is a lot more information out there if you need it... This is why at the end of each section, we've provided a handy directory with names, places and phone numbers you can go to for more information.

Always remember that if you ever need us, the Students' Union is here to help... You can either chat to your Class Rep or give one of your sabbaticals a ring.

Hope you all have your best year in college yet, whether it's beginning or finishing.
