A friendly voice right from the start

We’re your first point of contact. Whatever the enquiry or issue, we’re on your side. No question is out of place. We can advise you directly or help connect you to expert help, whether that’s an academic tutor or one of the many dedicated University services.

Talk to us in confidence

Our team is trained to listen and will treat your enquiry professionally and with discretion. Your information is always kept within the confines of the University.

Support when it’s needed most

We actively monitor engagement and attendance data and contact students to help resolve any challenges you may be experiencing which may be preventing you from fully engaging with your course.

Helping you discover a sense of belonging

Embarking on University life is both exciting and somewhat daunting. We understand the key milestones in the journey and will get in touch from time to time to help you navigate them successfully.

An expert for you to speak to

It's our business to know the Coventry University Group like no-one else. We can help you access expert services you may not even know exist as well as guide you through official processes like deferrals or extensions.
