Supporting You at Lincoln
Studying in another country can be challenging, from communicating in a new language and adapting to different ways of learning, to making new friends and socialising. That's why we've brought together a range of information and links to help you get settled.
Post-Enrolment Activities and Events
Once you are enrolled and have attended the range of helpful events and activities available during Welcome Week, we'll continue to run events throughout the year to help support you in various aspects of your academic study and social life here at Lincoln.
You can access a timetable of upcoming events below. Check back regularly as we will be updating this with new events as they are confirmed.

Student Support and Wellbeing
At the University of Lincoln, we take great pride in placing our students at the heart of everything we do. We understand that leaving home, starting university, and embarking on your future career is a big step, but at Lincoln, it’s not one you have to take alone.
Our Student Support Centre is situated at the heart of our Brayford Pool Campus and is the first port of call for helping you to find the support you may need. Our specialist teams offer free, impartial, and confidential advice and information on an array of topics - from fees, funding, and making payments, to housing, visas, and legal issues.
As soon as you have enrolled at the University, you will be able to register with our on-campus Health Centre and you can also seek specialist advice from our Student Wellbeing Centre. The team includes student wellbeing advisors, mental health advisors, and counsellors who can provide advice and guidance in relation to disability, medical conditions, learning differences, and mental health.
