Student Support

As a student at NCH your experience is personal, not anonymous. All of our staff members are friendly, responsive and easy to contact.

Lauren Gasser, our Student Support Adviser, along with the rest of our staff, helps you make the most of your time in London and all that the College has to offer. The opportunities areendless and include some of the best bars, clubs, restaurants, museums, galleries, concerts and theatres in the world.

Lauren can help you with:

  • Finding accommodation
  • Living on a budget
  • Personal support and counselling
  • Information about religious observances
  • Museum and gallery exhibitions

We don’t just help you make the most of your social life. We are also here to assist with all of your questions and concerns. Whatever your worry, there is always someone here to help.

Friendships that last a lifetime

The small size of the College’s student body means that we have a close-knit and supportive community of students. You’ll make friends with other students from your first day at the College during Freshers, at lectures and at NCH social events.

In halls

If you stay in the College’s recommended accommodation, you will be sharing a flat with other NCH students in a building that’s home to students from a variety of London colleges and universities. This gives you opportunities to build strong relationships with other students experiencing the same curriculum and academic environment, while expanding your network of friends to include students from the many other colleges and universities in London.

Your personal tutor

Your personal tutor meets you about once a term, and is there to advise on your work, monitor your progress and offer help with issues.

Health

Our students register with a very friendly GP practice and an equally friendly dental practice, both based in Holborn, just five minutes from NCH.

Counselling

Should you have any problems, the College’s student support team has received introductory training in counselling. In addition, Nightline provides confidential listening, support and practical information for students in London, and our recommended GP practice also provides a counselling service.
