UCL Students
Welcome to a new year at UCL
The 2020/21 academic year is here, and might look a little different from usual. But don't worry, we're still committed to providing you with the same level of support, the same great opportunities, and the same high-quality education, just with a few changes to keep you and our community safe and secure.
Important information for studying in 2020/21:

Keeping in Touch phone call campaign
Lockdown may be a tough time for some students, so we're launching our new Keeping in Touch phone call campaign to help you look after your wellbeing.

If you wish to change from in-person to remote learning you can let us know via Portico.

Self-isolation Programme
