Coming to college is all about developing your independence, making new friends, taking advantage of new opportunities and learning new skills for your future career; the more you put in, the more you will get out of college life.

Our Library offers a wide range of facilities, resources and services to support your independent learning and study skills.

There are individual, group and quiet study areas with PCs, laptops and Wi-Fi.

Our qualified and experienced staff are on hand to help you find resources and information for your studies; our Learning Advisers offer study skills workshops, including referencing and locating resources to support assignments.

Lincoln College Students’ Union (LCSU) represents its students based across all three campuses (Lincoln, Newark & Gainsborough).   We are based in the Student Common Room, Monks Building, Lincoln.

We run various events and activities and also support students to start clubs/groups/societies across the campuses.  We also have fantastic opportunities for students to get involved with college life.

We take pride in our representation of our students and as well as our SU Officer positions we also have Class Representatives and Student Council Representatives.  The student is at the forefront of what we do.

We run elections twice a year, at the end of one academic year and the beginning of the next.
