Asking for help

If you've got a question or problem, please ask for help as soon as you need it. There’s lots of support available and people you can contact for advice.

It's normal that you'll need to ask for help and advice, and use support resources during your studies. Knowing when and how to get help is one of the most important aspects of being a successful student. Our services are here to support you to settle in, manage challenges, and make the most of the many opportunities at Leeds.

The Student Information Service 

If you have a question or need information you can contact our friendly colleagues in the Student Information Service. With a Helpline, an email address, and five Information Points on campus we are here to help you navigate your studies, find out what you need to know, and we can put you in touch with the right people if more specialist support or advice is needed.
