Our commitment to our students
We are really looking forward to welcoming new and returning students to the University of Wolverhampton from September.
We are currently in Phase 2 along our Road to Reopening @WLV above, which means we are preparing for students to return as part of a managed process.
The safety of students and staff is our top priority, and our teams are currently working to ensure social distancing measures are in place for when we are back on campus. As we continue along our road to reopening, we will continue to review these in line with national guidance. Alongside these precautions, we have developed an innovative mixture of face-to-face and digital learning to ensure you can start your studies with us in September and you are not delayed in any way.
Support is here for you and our teams are ready to answer any queries you may have - we are here to help.
