Read more from Emily“The course has really opened my mind to different ways of looking at things. I really enjoyed studying the impact of social media on mental health in first year. Even as someone who has grown up with it, I was shocked to read the statistics about children’s use of social media, how young they start and the impact it can have.”

I have a learning mentor and special equipment to help me in lectures. Thanks to this support, I have gone on to receive a high achievers scholarship, an Excellence Scholarship for my role in setting up the Vegan Society and have created a plant-based food company which was runner up in Edge Hill’s Entrepreneurship Awards.”

“I’m studying an MSc in Psychotherapy and Counselling – Contemporary Creative Approaches. I am loving my time here at Edge Hill in Ormskirk as it is a fantastic uni and such a stunning campus. I am excited to be a part of the roller-skating society which I have literally not done since being 8, as well as the dance society. ”

“Coming to university was a huge change and I did not know how I would feel, but it has changed me in so many ways. University has allowed me to develop myself academically as well as teaching me valuable life skills. I have met a variety of people, and have really come out my comfort zones.”
