Frequently Asked Questions

It's helpful if you have to hand any paperwork, information or evidence in relation to your query. If your query is Student Finance-related, please bring/have your online log-in details.

If you have booked a Microsoft Teams appointment, please use the link emailed to you in order to access your appointment. 

Face-to-face appointments take place on Level 0, Student Central and you should check in at the MyBradford desk.
