COVID-19 update

If you’re studying or thinking of studying here and have questions about COVID-19, our helpline 01273 641234 is open Monday–Friday, 10am–12pm and 1-3pm.

Following the government’s announcement that universities would be unable to resume full face-to-face teaching until at least 17 May, we wrote to all our students expressing our disappointment, and setting out the next steps in a safe return. You can also take a look at our FAQs, check the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 at the university and read the latest emails sent to students. Current students can book a test online.
