What to do if you have a problem at ACM:

Press the HELP button

If you ever feel like you need support you can press the ‘HELP’ button that can be accessed via your myACM account.

This can be used for both personal and academic reasons.

You will be required to fill in a short form so that we can offer you the help that you need as quickly as possible.

Go to a lunchtime drop-in session

If you are unsure about whether you need help or what type of help you need, don’t hesitate to attend a drop in session with Jo Mackinnon.

These sessions are held in room 15 within the Rodboro Buildings between 1-2pm Monday to Friday every week.
