University Disciplinary Procedure
Exeter based students - Wellbeing Services or Students’ Guild Advice Unit
Cornwall based students - Student Services - Wellbeing or Students' Union Welfare
The University has a zero tolerance approach to the criminal misuse and supply of controlled substances and it is important to note that criminal convictions for the misuse or supply of a controlled substance can restrict further career and life choices. Whilst consumption of alcohol is not illegal, any resultant inappropriate behaviour may contravene the law and/or the University's Disciplinary procedures.
