What students say about business-studies

Most will start with the best thing ,I will start with what I actually not hate but not fun of, the weather is not good at most time. After staying for a while I have come to terms with it. What I love most about my college is how supportive the staff members are towards the student. Everyone is treated equally no discrimination, finding a place that does not discriminate is not easy and that why I make it one of the top university I have come across and be able to recommend to any students who are struggling to get one

What students say about business-studies

The University of Warwick is in a great location, to start with, and public transport is fantastic. It is easy to get to both Coventry and Leamington whether that be for social experiences, accommodation or travel. It is also a nice looking and well maintained campus, constantly being taken care of, with things such as beautiful flower plantings in the Spring. Many of the buildings are a bit ugly and rather outdated, but there are some nice ones too such as the Faculty of Arts building and the Oculus. There are lots of places to eat on campus too and most are fairly reasonably priced. There is also lots of space to study and it is fantastic how three floors of the library are dedicated to quiet study which I really appreciate. The gym facilities are also really good, especially after having been updated as of this summer just gone. The campus accommodation is also fantastic and I really enjoyed living there in my first year. Student support from seminar tutors and personal tutors is also fantastic. I think that my one biggest complaint would probably be the SU. From my understanding as a member of the a sports Exec team, many SU processes seem overcomplicated and take needlessly long amounts of time to carry out. For example, we as a club take out a monthly subscription to Canva for marketing purposes. By the time the SU has approved each month's payment, the next month's payment is already due, which seems to us as a club to be a ridiculously long time. To go back to sport more broadly the SU also fails to recognise all sports teams. My club is a big club with about 70 members yet does not get additional funding than the bare minimum 50+ members fee simply because it does not compete in BUCS tournaments. To my knowledge non-BUCS sports (including mine) receive no tournament fee support, resulting in far more expensive fees than the low-to-no cost experience by BUCS teams, despite the fact that we compete and represent the University at a significant national level. Nonetheless Warwick is a fantastic uni I really enjoy being at - the SU and its relationship with sport could just definitely do with some work.

What students say about business-studies

In herts you will experience multicultural society where you grt chance to interact with each other everyone is so friendly. The only worst experience i am having is timetable and class timing in uk every uni has 2 to 3 days classes and mostly online but here we have 4 days physical classes that really is difficult for majority of students other than uni of herts 10/10❤️🫶🏻

What students say about business-studies

University provides an opportunity to deepen one's knowledge in a chosen field of study and gain expertise. It opens doors to learning from experienced professors and engaging with cutting-edge research. In addition to this, anow is a time for personal development. Students often experience increased independence, learn to manage their time effectively, and develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. However there are some aspects which I do not prefer, firstly being that life can be demanding, with a heavy workload, exams, and deadlines. Balancing academic and personal responsibilities can be stressful.
