Overview
Housed on a new campus close to the town centre, all students at Northampton get a free laptop when they enrol or 다파벳카지노 a £500 accommodation discount or a £500 catering credit. There is further bursary support worth £400 a year in subsequent years of study for students from homes with a household income of £25,000 or less. The universal bursary package reflects the demographic here, which is predominantly students drawn from groups that are traditionally under-represented at university. This kind of support makes a real difference. More than half of the intake are from families where parents did not attend university and half are ethnic minority students, with black students alone making up one third of last year's entrants. It was the first UK university to be designated a Changemaker Campus in 2012, in recognition of its efforts tackling social injustice and changing the world through supporting innovation and enterprise. Alongside their degree, students can earn a Changemaker certificate which rewards volunteering or paid community work as well as developing and delivering a new project to create a positive social impact. Last year's Teaching Excellence Framework assessments saw the university downgraded from gold to silver, although it achieved this mark in overall rating, student experience and student outcomes.

Paying the bills
Top billing in the financial support provided by Northampton goes to the promise of either a new laptop or a £500 accommodation discount or campus catering credit to all new students. Only Teesside University offers anything similar. Students from homes with an income of no more than £25,000 a year get a further £400 cash bursary in each subsequent year of study. The John Lowe scholarship, worth £2,000, is made to a Northamptonshire-born or resident first-year student of accounting and finance, or financial planning and practice, while the Wilson Endowment scholarship provides £500 in each year of study (up to a total of £1,500) to Northamptonshire-born students or those who have lived in the county for three years. Reid Science, Engineering and Computing bursaries support a small number of students taking BSc or BEng degrees in environmental science, computing or engineering. Worth £500 per year of study, they are paid to students from homes with an income of up to £40,000. University accommodation is keenly priced, with Northampton being one of a very small number of universities to have costs starting at below £4,000 a year; rooms cost from £3,784 to £8,385 for a 43-week tenancy.

What's new?
The new Waterside campus is at the heart of Northampton's offer to students. Opened just six years ago and built at a cost of more than £300m, uniquely financed by a Treasury-guaranteed bond, it provides students with ultra-modern academic, social and sporting facilities and accommodation all within a short distance of one another. The campus near the town centre has won several awards, among them the Design Through Innovation award from the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors for creating an engaging and supportive environment for all users of the Learning Hub. Recent upgrades have included the relocation of the students' union to a more prominent and accessible location on campus and the creation of additional social spaces and gaming areas. Two new degrees in physiotherapy and hospitality management are planned for next September, while this month sees the first intake of those studying a new BSc in sustainable logistics and supply chain management.

Admissions, teaching and student support
Applicants from Northamptonshire who live in the 40% of postcodes with the highest levels of deprivation are given a contextual offer to encourage them to study locally. This reduces the university's standard offer of BCC at A-level and DMM at BTEC down to DDD and MMM respectively. Applicants should check that the eligibility criteria and the contextual offer level have not changed before they apply as the policy is reviewed annually. The university offers a Stepping into University SOOC (small online open course) to all students recruited under widening participation policies such as contextual offers, guiding them through their first year. Further support for all students comes through personal academic tutors, and mental wellbeing is enhanced by the policy of giving free access to sports clubs and other societies, which increases participation and promotes physical health. Academic leaders are encouraged to incorporate a six-minute video into all induction programmes outlining the university's counselling and mental health services. The university offers up to six initial sessions of counselling or mental health advice, together with drop-in support for students in need of help. All members of the campus security team are qualified mental health first-aiders and the training is offered to all staff.
