Student life comes with its challenges. Whether you are facing challenges concerning finances, health or your studies, explore the available support and seek guidance.
Our support structure is designed to assist you on various fronts. From study advisors to financial aid counsellors, a network of professionals is ready to help.
Find your support
Your first contact in the educational programme is your study adviser. You can turn to the study adviser with questions about your study, study plan and study progress. Some educational programmes also have tutors or mentors for tutoring. A meeting about non-educational related problems is also possible. For instance, about motivation, doubts and study delays due to personal circumstances.
Support from professionals
At UT, we have teams with professionals ready to support you.
