Student support services

We provide a range of practical and personal support services to ensure you have the best time learning and living at Kingston University. Our student support services can help you with almost anything, including health and wellbeing, faith and spirituality, and accommodation.

Student services

We have a single point of contact for all our student services, located at the heart of Penrhyn Road campus. Whether you need advice or support on accommodation, money, visa issues, disability support or student funding, you'll be referred to the right person in an instant. We also provide proactive support to students whose time at university might not quite be going to plan. We'll help you identify the next steps and support to get you back on track.

Health and wellbeing

Your health and wellbeing means everything to us. Our team provides confidential, flexible services, such as one-to-one counselling and online support and self-help. It is available for booked appointments or drop-in sessions.

We also have an on-campus NHS doctors surgery at Penrhyn Road, available to all students. Our NHS surgery offers a range of wellbeing services and low-cost complementary therapies including: aromatherapy, massage therapy, osteopathy, reflexology and sports massage.

Faith and spirituality

We love that our students come from many different backgrounds, cultures and faiths. We have a variety of faith-based student societies you can join and multi-faith prayer spaces for you to use on campus. Our dedicated faith and spirituality team offers support, whatever your beliefs, and can help you find places to worship in the University and in the local community.
