Support for Armed Forces – service leavers, veterans and their families

The University of Sunderland aims to provide you with a programme of support to ensure your transition back to civvy street is a successful one. Transfer those skills you developed in the Armed Forces to achieve a qualification that will kickstart your career.

Lauren Boffey is the dedicated Armed Forces Contact, here to support those students transitioning out of the Armed Forces into the University of Sunderland. Lauren’s role is to ensure these students receive the best possible service from the University, offering a robust structure of support to ensure the transition back to civvy street is a successful one.

The support we provide for students includes:

• Support through the enquiry stage to help students find the right course for them based on experience, qualifications and personal interests
• Support navigating the application process
• Support moving and adjusting to life at university – based on individual needs
