  2. When you come to University

  3. Part of the continuum • Many changes • Structure • Feedback • Level of achievement • Accommodation • Independence • Learning the unwritten rules

  4. Structure • For many students, coming to University is a move away from a controlled environment towards independence

  5. Feedback • Students are probably used to regular and detailed feedback • From their teachers • And from their family

  6. Achievement • Students may well have been the most able amongst their peers • There is a uniform anxiety about how well they will perform compared to their new peers

  7. Accommodation • Most students will either be away from home for the first time • Or they will be balancing their new found independence with their old family circumstances

  8. Independence • They will be realising that they are at the threshold of facing the world on their own • And now they have to start learning the unwritten rules
