Efficient communication between staff and students is essential and staff will contact you via your university email address, please ensure you check this regularly as staff will not use any other email address other than your University allocated address. There are also separate notice boards for each year of study in the concourse. It is your responsibility to check your email regularly and to consult the notice boards frequently.
Important Note: If you send a message from a private email address, you should also be aware that, due to the increasing problems of spam and viruses, a member of staff may sometimes have legitimate cause for suspicion about your message, and may therefore be obliged to delete it without opening it. This is especially likely to apply if your name and the subject matter of your message are not clearly identified in the email address and header.
At times, you may also be contacted by letter, and therefore any change in your term time or home address should be updated by you via the Student System without delay.
Failure to ensure your email or home address is correct may result in missing important communications such as changes to examination dates.
