We understand that supporting your young person in their journey to higher education can be daunting, especially if they might be the first in the family to attend. These parents and supporters sessions will help you understand key topics, such as what are the benefits of going to university and what does it involve, the application process, and finally, student finance.
During each session you will have the opportunity to ask questions throughout and there will be a dedicated Q&A section at the end. If you are unable to make the scheduled time, please still register and you will receive a recording of the session.
After a session has taken place we will also make the recordings available here. In these cases you will be unable to ask any questions “live” but you are more than welcome to contact us via email with any queries you may have.
