Peer Assisted Study Support

Peer Assisted Study Support (PASS) is an initiative where trained student PASS Leaders support groups of new undergraduate students to settle into university life, develop study skills and discuss academic course content. Sessions are delivered as part of your timetable on a weekly basis and are designed to be informal, friendly and student-led.

Each week different topics are discussed, ranging from subjects covered in your course to skills development (e.g. presentation skills) or more general issues related to settling into university life (e.g. how to use the library or access student support services). Attending sessions is a good way to meet people on your course and get hints and tips from a more experienced PASS Leader who has been in your position and understands the challenges that you might be facing.
