Student Information & Support

The Student Information and Support Office comprises of two Support & Information Coordinators (SISC). Our two coordinators, Nicole and Shane, provide advice and support on a range of academic, personal and financial issues. This is not a counselling service but can often act as the first port of call for students enduring stress or in need of advice. Our full-time coordinators are fully trained and can show students where they need to go to get the assistance they need. Students can access this service through an online booking system, with an option of a 20-minute or 40-minute session. 

If you'd like to book a free, 1-on-1 appointment with Shane or Nicole, you can do so further below. Please note: This is the UL Student Life support service, and therefore, it is independent of the university.
