Final year support

Being in final year is tough. On top of exams and deadlines, we know it’s hard to make time for future planning, but making time will pay off and make you feel in more control.

The Class of 2025 campaign aims to support you through these challenging times, by offering tailored advice and guidance on what the right next steps for you are, which you can work through at your convenience when you feel ready to.

We know that with everything else going on in final year, you may not feel ready to start this yet. This support will be available throughout your final year and after graduation – you'll still have access to all the Careers services you have now as a graduate. Whenever you're ready, book an appointment with us!
