We understand that university life can sometimes be challenging, if you do feel that you’d like some extra support whilst at Swansea, whether it’s related to personal, academic, or emotional concerns there are many different services and initiatives available to you.
Here are just a few of the resources and services that you can access:
Emotional Support
Our Wellbeing Service provides emotional support for all students. The team offers a range of guidance, advice, and therapeutic interventions for individuals and groups, including academic adjustments, counselling, and one-to-one mentoring. If you feel that you may need additional support, please complete our Support Request Form.
Sometimes it is just good to talk, there doesn’t always have to be any particular issue or problem.
