Newman University is, in many ways, an incredible place to be a student and we’re proud to study here/have studied here.

With a wide range of activities and student projects, a professional advice service and a growing academic representation system there are a broad range of ways that students can get involved and that we can have a positive impact on their lives. We’ve developed a good relationship with the University and we will continue to nurture that.
