Student Advice Service team

You can come to the service with any issues or problems that you might experience as a student - from questions or concerns about your education or University procedures to a health enquiry or a mental health issue. The Student Advice Service employs a full time professional Student Advisor whose primary role is providing confidential support to students. The Welfare and Rights Officer, the Education Officer, and the Women's Officer will also be able to provide support and representation.

The Student Advice Service can support you in a number of ways. We can discuss your concerns with you, explore what options are available to you, and represent you at a college or University level if necessary. We also act as a signposting service – if we can't assist you, we can help you work out what other sources of support are available that might better suit your needs.

This service is confidential – whilst we may share information within the service, no information about you or your situation will be given to anyone outside the service, except in very rare circumstances (our confidentiality policy can be found in the confidentiality section of the website).

This website has information about who we are and what we do (including our Code of Practice), support that is available to students in Cambridge and a range of information about specific issues that may affect some students.

The Student Advice Service is based in two locations - at CUSU and at the Graduate Union. We have advice areas at both these places, so feel free to drop in and chat to a member of the service at any time, Monday to Friday, 9am -5pm. You can also make an appointment by emailing advice@studentadvice.cam.ac.uk or by phoning 01223 746999.
