Buddy Scheme Information

Buddy Scheme What is the City University London Buddy Scheme?

If you are preparing to start at City University London in 2012 / 13 and you will be studying a course in Law or at Cass Business School, you can have a Buddy. A Buddy is a student volunteer from the same school who has already been through the first year and is keen to meet with you to answer any of your questions about the university and London. Buddies give their time freely to help you make the best start possible to your time at City.

How does it work?

You simply apply online. You will be paired up with a Buddy and possibly another new student from the same course as you. We ask them to get in touch with you as soon as they have your details, so you can discuss anything you're unsure of before you even arrive. After the induction, it is up to you as a group to decide how frequently to meet and how you want to use your time together.
