Registering for Support as a Current Student
It doesn’t matter what stage of your Loughborough journey you are at; you can request support from Student Services at any time.
Our support services are open to any student regardless of whether you are a Foundation or first-year undergraduate, a finalist or studying for a postgraduate degree or a PhD.
All our services are non-judgemental and unbiased and will work to support you in achieving your best whilst at Loughborough.
What to do next?
1) Check to see if you are registered with us, and any support adjustments you currently have in place, via your self-service page.
2) If your self-service page is not listing the support you are expecting, for mental health/wellbeing queries complete the Wellbeing Appointment Referral Form or for disability/health (including dyslexia) queries email studentinclusion@lboro.ac.uk
3) If you have not done so already, and you are eligible, we strongly encourage you to apply for Disability Support - Disabled Students Allowance.
