OP Friendly Faces
Last year the Old Princethorpians launched a scheme, OP Friendly Faces, which we hope will benefit many of our students as they leave the College and move on to university.
OP Friendly Faces aims to link past pupils established at university with first year OP students. Providing a friendly, familiar face to meet up with over a coffee (A Costa or Starbucks voucher will be provided compliments of the OPs!) or having someone to call in your new uni town or city, will, we hope, make for a smoother experience in those first few weeks away from home and help establish a support network of OPs in universities across the country.
We have almost 40 OP Friendly Faces based at universities and institutions across the UK, from Scotland to the Midlands, Wales and the South Coast. If we don't yet have a Friendly Face where you are heading, please sign up anyway and we will endeavour to find someone for you.
If this is something you feel you would benefit from, and in time may want to help with, please complete the form below .
If you are having a Gap Year or are not sure what you are doing yet, you can join the scheme at a later date.
OP Friendly Faces will match up new leavers with OPs in their second, third or fourth year at university, in order to do so we will share your name, mobile number and email address with the Friendly Face and vice versa, so you can arrange to meet up.
We will let you both know that we have done this, we will send the Friendly Face a Costa or Starbucks Coffee Gift Voucher for when you meet up, please send us a selfie of you together so we can promote the scheme #OPFriendlyFaces.
You will be automatically taken off the OP Friendly Faces Scheme when your course finishes or before if you request us to.
