Graduate testimonials
The different tutors from the University of Plymouth and MLA College with whom I had contact were always understanding of my personal circumstances and willing to help in any way they could.
Whilst we deliver our programmes from a distance, that doesn’t mean we expect you to achieve everything without a friendly voice to guide you. Our expert team of academics are on hand to support you throughout your studies, whenever you need them the most.
Your MLA College Student Experience Officers, Estelle Widger and Laura Allen, are the first point of contact for enrolled students who are in need of pastoral support, including requests under the Extenuating Circumstances policy for matters related to their academic studies. Estelle and Laura are also responsible for monitoring student engagement and academic progression and will contact students directly to offer assistance should they feel that intervention is needed.
