Term 1: September - December 2024
Meet your Classmates, Hosted by Your Student Adviser – Friday 13th September and Monday 16th September

Come along to meet your fellow students and Jolanta, your Student Adviser in our friendly, ice-breaker session!  

Find out a little bit more about your Student Adviser and how she can best support you during your first year at university.

We appreciate starting university can be a nerve-wracking experience, so there will be activities and games to get you all socialising and you can start the term off already knowing a few friendly faces! 

This event is completely free, and a great way to ease your nerves and meet some new faces before you start your course. We can't wait to see you there!

About Jolanta

What was your experience of Further/Higher education like? 

I went to university in Poland. It wasn’t long after Communism had fallen but before Poland had joined the EU, so politically it was a very exciting time. I was over the moon to be offered a place at university and it felt like suddenly a world of opportunities had opened up. 

What do you like most about your work as a Student Adviser?

Helping students gives me a great sense of fulfilment and achievement.

What's a surprising or interesting fact about yourself?

In my free time I love reading fantasy books about wizards, dragons and magic :)
