Imperial has launched a new online guide to support new students as they adjust to university life.

The Imperial Success Guide is an online resource featuring a range of hints, tips and advice on everything from effective study to health and wellbeing which aims to give new undergraduate students the information they need to succeed at the College.

The Guide brings together information and advice from around Imperial in one easy-to-use resource. It will be supported by a new blog providing extra information throughout the term on topics such as exams and preparing for your first assignments.

The Success Guide was created through the College’s work on Academic Transitions, as part of the Education and Student Strategy. The project, led by Professor Mary Morrell, was tasked with developing a programme to support new students as they transition from school to university.

Professor Mary Morrell, Chair of the Transitions Working Group, said: “The first year of university is a dramatic time of change. We have some of the brightest students in the world here at Imperial and the Success Guide is designed to make sure they start out well and make the most of their time here at the College.

"We’ve had a lot of feedback from staff and students on the Guide so far and we’ll be drawing on this to further develop it as the year goes on. There’s a lot of useful information out there and we’ll be regularly producing new content on the blog and across social media.”
