Before you arrive, you will be allocated a Personal Academic Tutor (PAT) who will be a member of staff in your Division. Your PAT will provide you with academic advice and guidance, will be your formal attendance contact, and will monitor your academic progress for the duration of your course. 

For most students, the first PAT meeting will take place on Monday 6th October. However, some divisions may have scheduled meetings at different times during Welcome Week. Attendance is expected.

You can find details of your assigned PAT, along with your meeting time and location, on your timetable just before Welcome Week via the University App and on Moodle. Please note that you must complete your online enrolment before you can access Moodle.
