At the uni of york, there won't be a day when you need to complain that there's nowhere to do your revision. This is because the library are broken up into 3 separate building on west campus and the Spring lane building offers a top study environment too. In terms of learning support, the lecturers and seminar leaders are always eager to help a struggling student, in addition to the available Maths and Writing skills centre. I would say the worse part of my experience so far is the inadequate frequency of free campus shuttle.

My course has the right blend of contact hrs and independent learning. For the most part, the duration of each in person class is set just right, but there have been occasion when you are in the thick of a debate and the class has to end. The only problem i encountered so far is when you are given an essay to write but the topic area may not appeal to you. That can be a force to reckon with.

All the essentials are in the kitchen, from microwaves and toasters, to ovens and fridges. Pool table and dart board can be found in the college common room. Cleaning for communal area is done every week which i really like. Soundproofing on the walls is average as you can hear every little sound in the corridor and music in the kitchen even if you are 4-5 rooms down the corridor.

It is a wonderful place to study with an amazing campus, college system, supporting students in all areas such as sports, music, well-being etc. Only problem I would like to mention is about cost of living supports. Even though we pay a lot for the tuition fee, we have to pay almost for the all activities in the University such to do sports (gym and to join the teams), to join freshers week activities etc. Another biggest problem for University of York students is that there is no supermarket close to the campus. There is only one in campus which is Nisa but it's much more expensive than a normal supermarket unfortunately.

Regarding the postgraduate programme, all lecturers are well-qualified and they perfectly explain the necessary topics which we need to know however, they focus only on the theoretical part all the time. Even if we understand the theory well, solving the questions is not possible without seeing any examples in the lectures, especially for the numerical modules. Moreover, the length of the seminars that we suppose to see examples are too short and never enough to solve the questions even in the problem sets.

Unfortunately, I can not say that I am glad with the accommodation. First reason is that the rooms are not modern furnished. Because of this, it is quite normal to see bed bugs and silverfishes in your room! In addition, cleaners come to clean our kitchen thankfully but before they came we have to make pre cleaning and if we don't do it we have to pay penalties! All people in the flat and 16 pounds per each! Last thing I don't like is that they just turn on the heaters 10 hours per day, not all day even in the cold weathers.
