4.3 Support to study

This policy and the accompanying procedures are to be followed where there are concerns that a student’s mental or physical health, finances or personal circumstances significantly affect their ability to participate fully and effectively in their academic studies or life generally at Oxford Brookes University, including in their student accommodation.

The Support to Study Policy reiterates the University’s commitment to supporting students in their academic progression. It lays out the framework for how concerns will be addressed in those cases where the range of supportive measures that the University may be reasonably expected to provide have been employed but have not satisfactorily resolved concerns.

The Support to Study Policy and related procedure applies to the entire student experience, not just a student’s ability to engage with their studies. For example, unless informed otherwise, the University expects its students to be able to live independently and in harmony with others and not conduct themselves in a way that has an adverse impact on those around them.

If you need support with anything that may be impacting your studies, please contact studentsupportservices@brookes.ac.uk.
