Student Advisory Service

KU Student Advisory Service

The Student Advisory Service is here to support you if your studies hit a snag or if you’re facing an important decision. We offer confidential, non-judgmental advice—for example, if you’re having doubts about your studies, experiencing exam anxiety or stress, considering a change in subject or degree program, or if you’re at risk of dropping out. Together, we’ll assess your situation and develop next steps that are right for you.

Advice for students who are unsure about their studies, have test anxiety, or are experiencing learning or motivation issues, as well as for those considering a change in subject or degree program.
