Students
Whether you’re just getting started or continuing your studies, this page brings together the key information and support you might need.
We’re proud that students regularly rate UHI highly in national surveys, and we’re committed to making your experience the best it can be.
If you need help at any point, we’re here for you. Student services can support you with wellbeing, funding advice, learning support and more.
You’ll also find useful information across our website. Check your student email regularly for important updates and the monthly student newsletter, and get involved through clubs, societies, volunteering and student events.
And if you have feedback or ideas to improve your experience, you can share them anytime using our Red Button service.


The home of UHI merchandise
We're excited to launch our new online shop, featuring a range of clothing for students, staff and alumni!
Merch made sustainably
All products are custom-made to order by our supplier, Teemill. We chose Teemill for their dedication to sustainability, using 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton, renewable energy for production, plastic-free packaging and a circular fashion model.
If there’s something you’d like to see in our shop, please let us know by emailing UHI communications and we’ll do our best to make it happen!

Highlands and Islands Students’ Association (HISA)
The Highlands and Islands Students’ Association (HISA) is your students’ association.

When you join UHI, you automatically become a member of HISA. That means you can:
- Join student groups, societies and clubs
- Take part in events and campaigns
- Access advice and support services
- Make your voice heard through course reps, elected officers and networks
