Why you'll #loveLTU

We're proud to be known as the university where you're a name, not a number.

We are committed to giving our students a truly personalised university experience, which means you can access a wide range of support, tailored to you, at every stage of your university journey.

Student support

At both campuses, you'll be able to access our Student Support and Wellbeing services. Their friendly and committed staff can help you with a range of personal and academic issues, making sure you get the support you need.

Our services include:

• Money Advice Service
• Disability Service
• Student Mental Health & Wellbeing Service
• Student support for pastoral and academic guidance

Students can access support from our Student Support Duty Managers until 5.00am, seven days a week. 

Students can also access free, online support 24/7 through Togetherall - an online mental health and wellbeing service offering self-help programmes, creative outlets and a caring community through clinically mediated peer-to-peer support. It's a totally anonymous service, giving you a safe space to access support when you need it, in addition to the University's Student Mental Health and Wellbeing Service.

Student Mental Health and Wellbeing Service

We offer assessments for any student concerned about their mental health (accessed via an online referral) before discussing available support from both Leeds Trinity and local services.
Within the service we provide a range of short-term talking therapies as well as access to self-help materials.
Please email studentwellbeing@leedstrinity.ac.uk if you have any questions about the support available during your studies.

Study skills and peer support

We understand that no two students learn in the same way. That's why we set up our Learning Hub, giving students access to personalised academic and study skills support.

As soon as you become a Leeds Trinity student, you'll be assigned a development tutor. They'll take the time to get to know you and your learning needs throughout your degree, giving you personalised academic support and helping to keep you on track with your studies.

We have dedicated liaison librarians specific to your course, who run training sessions to help you develop your skills. Our lecture and tutorial sizes are also a lot smaller than other universities, which means you'll have regular opportunities to talk to your tutors one-on-one.

You'll be able to collaborate with other students in our interactive study rooms, focus on your reading in our silent study zones, and research your coursework in our IT rooms and 24-hour IT lab. You can also work with our peer support champions – experienced students who can support you with everything from the transition to university, to writing successful essays.

Accommodation support

To help you settle into your student accommodation, you'll have a live-in resident mentor.

They're experienced and trained students who are on hand to answer your questions about anything from housing to socialising.

They also organise social activities throughout the year and help maintain the amazing sense of community that Leeds Trinity is renowned for.

Careers and graduate support

You'll have the support of our Careers+Placements team throughout your degree – from helping you to craft a standout CV and knockout applications, right through to mock interview preparation. 

Our Careers+Placements team can help you to apply for any part-time jobs and voluntary experience during your studies, and support you to apply for things like postgraduate study and your first job out of university. What's more, you'll be able to access their support up to three years after you graduate, helping you make the most of any early career opportunities.

Whether you want to go straight into your nursing career, progress to postgraduate study, or you’re unsure what your next step is, we’ll work closely with you to help you launch your career.

Practice placements make up around 50% of your Nursing degree, giving you more than 2,300 hours of hands-on experience over three years.

You’ll work alongside experienced healthcare professionals in a variety of clinical and community settings, applying what you’ve learned in the classroom to real patient care.

Placements are carefully planned to give you experience across a range of healthcare environments – from hospital wards and GP practices to specialist units and community services, and help you to develop your clinical skills, confidence and professional identity as a nurse. 

We've adopted a collaborative approach working closely with our partners across Yorkshire for a wider clinical practice placement circuit, including Private, Independent and Voluntary Organisations (PIVO). We're part of the West Yorkshire Placement Allocation Network, which includes:

• Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (LTHT)
• Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust (LCH)
• Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (LYPFT)
• Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (BTHFT)
• Bradford District Care NHS Foundation Trust (BDCFT)
• Airedale NHS Foundation Trust (ANHST)

Your dedicated Practice Placement Team for Nursing and Allied Health will guide you through every stage of the process – from allocation and induction to ongoing support while you’re on placement. They’ll help you make the most of every opportunity to learn, reflect and grow as a healthcare professional.

If you have any placement-related questions, you can contact the team directly at ppt@leedstrinity.ac.uk.

When our students tell us why they love Leeds Trinity, the same words come up again and again.

Friendly. Supportive. Caring. Family. Community. Home.

You belong to something special when you study here, and living in halls is a big part of this.

It’s at the heart of many students’ university experience, where you make friends and memories that last a lifetime.

Here are five big reasons to love living in halls at Leeds Trinity:

1. Live at the heart of student life
   Nursing students are invited to live on our Main Campus, ideally placed to make the most of student life - just minutes away from your lectures, the gym, students’ union, the canteen and cafés.
2. A supportive environment
   We're here to help you settle in and enjoy your time in halls. With 24/7 security and live-in resident mentors, there’s always someone available to make sure you feel supported and safe.
3. No hidden costs
   Your accommodation contract includes utility bills, Wi-Fi and personal possessions insurance, making it even easier to control your finances.
   Prices are fixed for the duration of your contract, so you don’t need to worry about any increases throughout the year.
4. We own our accommodation
   Unlike many universities, we own all our accommodation on our Main Campus. This means you’ll deal directly with our team rather than a third party or landlord.
5. You can keep coming back
   If you love living on campus, you can apply to stay in our accommodation in any year of your degree.

Your home from home

As a Nursing student, you’ll be offered the option of booking a room in All Saints Court, located at the heart of our Main Campus.

It’s one of our top-of-the-range accommodation options, chosen for Nursing students because its location and facilities suit the structure of your degree.

Every bedroom is fully en-suite, and each flat of five to six students has a shared kitchen and lounge/dining area.

What’s included in your contract?

All our contracts include gas, water and electricity bills, as well as personal possessions insurance for the duration of your contract.

Free Wi-Fi is also available and campus has security 24/7 to ensure you feel safe in your new home.

How to apply
