The Advice Place

The Advice Place is an impartial, accessible, free, confidential advisory service for all University of Edinburgh students irrespective of race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, religious belief or age.  

We act on behalf of students and their interests, advising independently of the University of Edinburgh or any other organisation or authority.  Advice is offered on a walk-in basis at any of our 3 offices or by appointment for more specialist areas such as welfare benefits, academic issues and immigration.

The service is delivered by professional advisory staff, trained to provide both generalist advice and advice in individual specialist areas of expertise.  We are also assisted by student volunteers who have successfully completed an appropriate training programme.
