INTO Newcastle University 2018–2019
Life on campus
With traditional buildings and modern architecture, Newcastle’s city-centre
campus is a beautiful place to study. Add in great social and learning facilities,
and you’ll find everything you need to have an amazing experience.
Your Study Centre
The modern INTO Study Centre is close to
everything on campus from the library to
the Students’ Union, so you’ll be part of the
University from day one. It’s been designed with
you in mind, and it’s where most of your classes
during your pathway will take place.
To get you started the Learning Resource Centre
has a range of books and study materials. You’ll
also find plenty of areas to study and socialise
throughout the Centre. Want a break between
classes? Just head to the INTO Café or one of
the other 14 cafés on campus for a coffee or
something to eat.
Support every step of the way
From the moment you arrive, our Student
Services team will help you settle into life in
Newcastle. Whether you’re opening a bank
account, planning a trip or have an academic
question, they’re here to help. For students
under 18 we offer extra support and there’s
even a 24-hour telephone helpline if you need
to speak to someone during out of office hours.
