Health & Wellbeing

Your health should be your top priority. After all, if you're not feeling your best, you can't study properly!

Once you have registered at the University, you will be offered the opportunity to sign up with a General Practitioner (GP) that provides student health services to all those who are studying at the University. The Health service provides doctors, nurses, clinics, prescriptions, travel vaccinations, telephone advice and out-of-hours emergency services.
