Need Advice or Support?
ENSA Advice is here for you. We provide free, confidential and impartial advice to Edinburgh Napier students. We can support you with academic matters, housing, wellbeing and welfare, and other issues affecting your student experience.
Our advisers will listen, explain your options, and help you work out what to do next. You don’t need to wait until a problem becomes serious, and there’s no such thing as a silly question. Getting advice early can often make things much easier.

Be a Programme Rep
Every year of every programme of study needs at least one and, depending on the size of your class, usually two or three students to be Reps. It only takes a few hours per month and it's a great opportunity to develop your skills and win improvements on behalf of your class.
You will receive training and, if you actively attend meetings, recognition on your Uni transcript. Let your Programme Leader know if you are interested.
