Amazing support from staff particularly equine lecturers, ASC and ICE staff. Perfect campus experience with nice sized accommodation blocks and a nice mix of people from different courses. Amazing facilities for studying and to keep horse on livery. Equine lecture timings should be more accommodating around livery times as these often clash in the evening!

Course is delivered in weekend blocks which is convenient as it allows time to get a part time job during the week. However the weekend lecture blocks are very tiring and by the end of the last day it is hard to concentrate as so much content has been delivered over the past 2-3 days. Great access to lecturers whether that is through individual tutorials or drop in sessions so lots of support is available.

My halls had a washing machine and large kitchen which was great and enough room for 10 people per floor. Rooms and bathrooms are big enough and it is nice to have an en-suite. However, the shower curtains are disgusting and stick to you… should probably be replaced. Wifi was good in my room but I know friends in other rooms couldn’t get it properly. Limited fridge and freezer space more definitely needed!

So many courses to offer, a lot of aid and guidance given when asked and really nice lecturers. Could be improved by promoting help in regards to student mental help.

Doing a foundation course benefited me for my first year as I already know a lot on my course from last year. It allowed me to prep myself for university life easier instead of diving into the deep end. Some cons about the course is that since I have an advantage on the rest of the people in my course, the work is repetitive and very easy which makes it occasionally very boring. Contact with lecturers is easy and efficient as they do their best to help you to the best of their abilities for us to succeed

It’s very practical to have lived next to the center of Gloucester and was very lively. The issue however was the fact that there was zero help when it came to moving in and arriving in the UK and that my demands weren’t respected at all and was found in a flat with people I disliked for an entire year.
