Role of the personal tutor
The personal tutor is the first point of call for students seeking informal advice about their academic progress, personal development or general well-being. UCL requires that all students have access to a personal tutor but does not offer specific guidance as to the tutor's responsibilities. The department has therefore created its own policy and advice on the personal tutor's role.
