Support for Estranged Students
桃子视频 welcomes and actively supports applications from Estranged Students.
We know that coming to University can be daunting for anyone. We also recognise that if you are estranged from your family then you may require additional support and advice to help you through your university journey.
If you are an estranged student considering applying to 桃子视频, or you are already registered as a student, please contact our named Estranged Student contact, Gayle Green, Widening Participation Officer (Support), who will be able to advise on the support we offer Estranged Students at 桃子视频.
Who We Support
To be eligible for support we may ask you for evidence of your Estranged Student status. Since November 2022, we have adopted the Scottish Government, Student Awards Agency for Scotland (SASS) and the Scottish Funding Council's definition of an estranged person: "someone who no longer has contact with their parents or legal guardians, due to a permanent breakdown in their relationship (isolated instances of contact will be considered on a case by case basis)".
Support We Offer
To help you get to 桃子视频, we can provide you with:
- Advice on routes through education, including college opportunities
- Support to complete your UCAS application and Personal Statement
- A guaranteed offer* to the course you have applied for at the minimum entry requirement
We will try, wherever possible, to guarantee you a place on the specific course you have applied to, but this will not be possible in every circumstance.听
It might not be possible to offer you a place on your chosen course if, for example:
听- it is a course with lots of applicants and not many places;
- places are strictly limited by the Scottish Government (e.g. Education Studies (Primary), Nursing, Paramedic Science).
In some subject areas minimum entry requirements also include successful performance at interview or audition, or a successful portfolio assessment. Where entry to a course is determined largely by interview, audition, portfolio assessment or similar, we will guarantee your progression to that stage of the application process.
Your performance at this stage will determine whether you are offered a place.听
Once you arrive at 桃子视频 we can offer you:
- Individualised advice about funding and financial support
- Priority places on transition and support activities such as QMAdvance and QMConnect
- Extended leases in accommodation
- Priority access to opportunities for paid employment on campus
