Support for care experienced students begins in advance of joining the university and prospective students should be made aware of the support we offer via the Propel website. 

We encourage students to get in touch with our named contact prior to arrival to ensure everything is in place with their student loan and to address any concerns they may have about transition to university.  Following results and confirmation of place care experienced students are contacted to formally introduce the named contact and to arrange a meeting during their first weekend or week on campus.  Follow up contact is made with anyone who has initially chosen not to engage early in term one. 

Interaction after this point will continue based on your personal preference but all will receive communication at key points in the year (e.g a reminder to re-apply for your student loan, or in advance of assessments and exams).
