Every first-year undergraduate student is assigned to a PASS (Peer-Assisted Study Sessions) or Peer Mentoring group. These groups are run by higher-year student volunteers from the same course of study.
You can determine which scheme provides Peer Support for your degree by looking through the Faculty category tables below. Please note that some joint honours courses may have multiple Peer Support schemes; we list the schemes with the primary supporter first and additional/optional schemes afterward. Some schemes also offer Year 2 Support.
