I love this Uni. It is my 4th total year here as I did the access course too. The Campus is impressive when you walk into it. The staff are all friendly and approachable and there is always someone willing to help. The library facilities are excellent with such a wide space to dissappear into. It also has areas to book time into if you enjoy privacy while studying. I have enjoyed my time here so much that I am considering what other studies I can complete after I finish my undergrad.

The course is hosted by a knowledgeable and approachable group of lecturers who all have experience in the field they are teaching. The module has recently changed and my Cohort were the first to experience. Hopefully with some tweaking it will be an excellent module but it has fallen a bit short for us and has let a lot of us down due to it being so new. This has meant that not all lecturers have the same requirements for assessments, the content that has been taught has been either too lacking or not enough time to teach. On a full time course I expected to be at university full time, as I am when at placement but we get 1-2 days a week for 6 weeks where we have the content tested on us for engagement and then we all have to rate how good it was. If we were a beta testing Cohort, we should have been paying beta fees. I haven't found it fair that we have had to pay full tutorship fees for a course not yet out of nappies. I pay to be taught and I find it frustrating that I am told I should teach myself everything I need to know about being a nurse. Overall the nursing course has been great at bringing its students together as a group of colleagues who will graduate together and support each other. I have made some amazing friends who I will keep for a lifetime and the course will give me a career for life. I have enjoyed every minute of this course even through the frustrations of being the guinea pig Cohort. And despite it being frustrating at times, I would still absolutely recommend it as you get back what you put in.

Great public transport links between the university and the halls of residence, city centre and the train station.

Get the chance to do simulated practice before going out on first clinical placement.

Having the safety of having a manager, residence assistants, cleaners and a caretaker, along with bills, WiFi and contents insurance included in the price of the room. Easy walk to city centre, along with bus connections to city centre.
