Leaving university

Heidi-Rose

Dont drop out. I am a mature student I have severe depression, dyspraxia, dyslexia and other health issues. I went part-time and the uni gave me a mentor which really helped. I got letters from my doctor confirming my depression and this meant I could get mitigating circumstances and do resits whenever I needed a second go. Go to the Disabled Student advice (depression & dyspraxia count as disabilities for this purpose) and ask for help - they will put you onto the right person to help sort things out. I just finished my degree - it's so worth it - don't give up.

A week's revision is more than most students do for an exam. I've gone in with a day's revision and still been fine.

There is definitely still time to revise!

Universities are usually very supportive, as they have to (publicly) report their dropout rates to the gov, and having a high rate doesn't look good.
