Undergraduate students can access various means of support throughout their studies at the University of Otago, Christchurch (UOC). Student Affairs and Support are located in the Student Support Hub on the 5th floor of the UOC. They are also in Timaru and Nelson.
They offer assistance for students facing problems with finances, mental health, learning difficulties, needing help but not knowing where to go, intimidating behaviour, reporting poor professional behaviour and many more. Support is accessible to all students, including for specific groups, and through a variety of channels.
If Student Affairs and Support are unable to help directly, they can liaise and guide students towards appropriate resources.
Contact details, resources, and more detailed information for where undergraduate students can access support can be found in the Undergraduate Student Support Hub blog.
