If you are considering joining the University , having studied an HNC or HND programme at college , our College Articulation Officer will be able to provide guidance and information on opportunities to enter the University directly into Years Two or Three of our degree courses ( often referred to as articulation , direct entry or advanced standing ). Direct entry students will also benefit from the Direct Entrant Induction programme which includes a range of activities in local colleges and a designated induction event for direct entrants at the start of the academic year .
Mentoring
QMConnect , our mentoring scheme , offers new students the opportunity to be matched with a trained mentor . This service is open to all new students . Mentors are current students in Years Two , Three or Four who have volunteered and have been trained to support other students . We aim to recruit mentors who are studying the same or a similar subject to you , but we cannot guarantee this . Mentors and mentees meet regularly to discuss a variety of issues , both social and academic , which can help make that first year of study at QMU a more enjoyable experience .
Support for care leavers
We recognise that care leavers who have spent time in local authority care , either in residential accommodation , foster care or under supervision orders at home , may require additional advice and support during both the pre-entry period and during the transitional period . We offer all care leavers individual support from our Transition and Pre-Entry Guidance Adviser . We can work with care leavers and their social workers to ensure that applicants are supported appropriately through their time at QMU .
“ The support I received from QMU ’ s Disability Service team has had one of the most positive influences on my experience at QMU . The help
I ’ ve had has given me a huge confidence boost and has allowed me to reach my academic potential , as well as opening doors to new career opportunities .”
