Interested in joining the WBS buddy scheme?
The WBS buddy scheme is a great opportunity for first year, foundation year and new-to-campus intermediate year students to be matched with an intermediate or finalist year student and benefit from peer to peer support, learning from their experiences and insights following a year of studying at Warwick.
The scheme has ran during term one and we are now opening again for applications for term 2 onwards. It is suggested that buddies meet 2-3 times per term - to network, discuss your academic studies should you want insights from another peer. The scheme, though started by WBS, is designed to be flexible and informal between buddies.
You can sign up to the scheme using the below form. This form asks a number of questions to ascertain your preferences, as this scheme is new to this academic year, how many of your preferences we can match will be dependent on the number of sign-ups we receive.
Deadline for term 2 sign up is midnight on Friday 28th January 2022.
