Known issues
A common issue faced by students is the delay in receiving responses from the Advice Team, which may take up to five working days. If your enquiry is urgent, it is advisable to follow up after this period. To avoid delays, ensure that all required information, such as your student ID and a detailed description of your issue, is provided in your initial enquiry. For immediate concerns, consider contacting a Senior Staff Member directly. Using the online enquiry form can also expedite the process. Patience is key, as the team handles a high volume of enquiries.
