| Study Skills centre | Academic skills, literacy, numeracy and IT support |
| Your Skills | Cheatsheet of key employability skills and the options at York for developing them |
| Open Door Team | Mental health support |
| Student Hub | Assistance with finance and housing issues |
These services provide dedicated, professional support to students. Please access these services whenever you think it would benefit them.
