I love my university experience so far, I really enjoy my subjects and the level of studying I am doing. The other students are very open and it is easy to make friends. The campus is great and the lecturers have erudite knowledge in their fields.

I get frequent emails specifically from my courses about possible internships and the university has several events throughout the year that are very interesting.

I like the way the courses are taught especially the seminars when we can get together in smaller groups and discuss. All lecturers are different however and I have had some lecturers whose teaching styles were difficult to follow.

I am not involved in the students union because I am very busy with other societies and they represent us students very well so I don't see the need to get involved.

I have a single room and I am sharing the bathrooms and the kitchen with 12 other students. We have laundry rooms on 2 of four floors and a common room downstairs with a TV and tables and a study room on the second floor with computers connected to the university system which is very convenient.

The university facilities are very good, although it is sometimes very busy in the library and in some buildings the toilets are very hidden away.

I am from the country side so I was frightened by the idea to move into the city, however Glasgow is amazing and I really love it. The campus is secluded from the busy city however not too far away to get things done.

I really enjoy my clubs and societies. I am part of the Catholic Society, the Christian Union and the Creative Writing Society and a contributor at the Glasgow Guardian. The clubs are all well organised and keep my schedule busy, the members are open, welcoming and friendly.

The tutors give great academic feedback. Personally I applied to counselling got an email saying that there is a waiting list possibly as long as three months and never heard back which I was very disappointed by.

As a mature student the university have been extremely supportive of my situation, honestly think if I had chosen another place of study I wouldnt have lasted past the first semester. The Mature Students society is a great help and offers peer support and advice on juggling study with homelife. The university itself is an awe inspiring mix of classical buildings and modern atchitecture, it's one of the vest looking uni campuses i've visited and with a program of uogrades and new building scheduled, its only going to get better over the coming decade. The students are what makes a university and the UoG students are a credit to the university itself, the majority are dedicated, intelligent and helpful, theyre the reason why the university continues to thrive.

The uni offers a wide range of employability courses and runs workshops and seminars on everything from CV writing to interview skills, the SRC host employment fayres several times throughout the year and also has ties with leading employers throughout a wide range of industries who offer internships and work based training exclusively for UoG students.

The lecturers all seem to have a genuine passion for the subjects and a desire to pass on their knowledge and experience, the seminar tutors are approachable and the entire teaching staff make it apleasure to learn in such an environment. Of course i can only speak for the staff within my faculty, the others may be awful but i doubt it.

I dont really get involved much, i have a young family at home so my free time is taken up with them, though i do know that both unions within the UoG host social events throughout the year and also do a lot to improve the conditions and to support the students.

We have one of the best library collections in europe, state of the art Gym facilities and a coffee bar in each building as well as a museum, a gallery, a renowned concert venue and various eateries and bars all within the campus.

Glasgow offers something for everyone, theres quiet parks and museums, sport facilities, 2 major football teams, several theatres with peformances as diverse as the city itself, nightckubs, fine dining, burger bars, live gigs, opera,Ice Hockey, Roller discos, golf, wrestling, LARPing, award winning restaurants and pubs, gin joints and brew houses. Glasgow has a reputation as the best nightlife in the UK and has more michelin stars than the rest of scotland combined, it really is the best city in europe and deserving of all the accolades and praise it has recieved over the past 20 years, its no longer "no mean city" and is now "the dear green place"

There are over 100 uni societies and clubs that cater for everyone and if you dont find one you like then its simple to start your own. Each group has its own unique place within uni life and all offer several social engagements throughout the year.

The lecturers offer feedback on all submissions and are hapoy to make time to discuss your work with you, they also are approachable and will point you in the right direction for any emotional or physical support you require. The uni support team are always there to help with any problems you have, struggling with finances? They can help, struggling with stress? They will help. Cant access your online accounts? They'll help with that as well.
