Maintenance could be better

I've loved my time here and I hope to continue, genuinely has been the time of my life and has taught me so much about myself and shown me that I can overcome any obstacle that gets in my way.

I love our wetLab it's got plenty of space in it and has everything we need. Honestly my favourite part of uni, however that's not saying that there isn't good sport facilities as there's a sport village and pool right next to Singleton campus which allows dive training with SUSAC which is great fun, the libraries are huge, especially the one on singleton which plenty of study spaces, generally the onsite facilities are fantastic.

The university has great well being services which are pretty easy to access, if you ever have problems don't be afraid to reach out to your mentor or to the wellbeing team and they'll do everything they can to help.

The students union are always on hand to offer advice and sign post you to services which has been a huge help! Plus the freshers activities they prepare are generally excellent.

When not locked down there's plenty of restaurants, cinemas, cafes, bowling, arcades etc around and if those aren't your thing, there's always the university societies which have movie nights or other events throughout the year, from LAN parties to diving trips it's all there. It also helps there's a pretty active nightlife in Swansea if that's your thing, there are night busses that make travelling around pretty convenient, and the trains are pretty often if you're travelling from a fair distance or want a day out elsewhere.

There are tons of sports available at Swansea, from archery to scuba to even Octopush (underwater hockey) which is great fun! I highly recommend checking out the huge range of sport societies on offer.

Having come from engineering originally I was at first sceptical about the flipped content that the course director was implementing, but I was made a believer when I saw that it enabled us to learn about a topic then do more advanced applications of it showing that we could really grasp the content and get help in class with stuff we needed help understanding rather than struggling to learn the topic in class and getting stuck on questions with no support later on.

With the employability awards I believe the university does a great deal to give you transferable skills, with many courses implementing presentations in to their framework you also gain experience in public speaking which is a fantastic skill to have.

I am renting a flat privately, while it's cheaper than being on campus, you do run out of options if you don't look early, usually it's better to go in halls at first then organise with friends or classmates for accommodation in the term for the next year. Generally speaking the faster you act the better deal you'll get and the better area. There's plenty of differing private and university halls so you've got plenty to choose from.
