Who is my Mentor/Tutor?:
- Your Personal Tutor will appear on the S3P system, where you registered, during September (under the 'Programme' tab). You can also find the name of your tutor on the student app. Make a note of who your tutor is as you will meet them during Induction week.
- You will receive an e-mail with details of your Peer Mentor around mid-September, so you can ask them any questions before you arrive. Peer Mentors are Undergraduate students from within the School who provide support and guidance to new students as they navigate their first year at Newcastle University. They can answer queries about Newcastle (the city and campus), the School and tell you where to go for specialist advice.
- Alternatively you can contact the SNES School hub on the ground floor of the Agriculture Building to find out who your Tutor or Mentor are.
