Being a Student Buddy

Being a student buddy is a great way to give something back by supporting new students while developing yourself and having fun! 

Student buddies help new undergraduates adjust to University life by being a friendly first point of contact.

Our volunteer student buddies are recruited from our Student Communities

We are currently recruiting student buddies for 2025/26. If you are in one of our Student Communities groups and would like to volunteer as a Student Buddy, please email student-buddy@york.ac.uk.

 

If you have any questions relating to our Student Buddying Schemes please contact: student-buddy@york.ac.uk
