The student support is amazing at both an educational and pastoral level, lecturers and module conveners aim to strive for excellence. Student services and academic mentors also help students to live comfortably and in accordance with their studies. The worst aspects of the uni experience are probably the difficulties associated with independence, adjusting to a different life than at home with less instructions and co-ordination with caregivers. Additionally, adjusting from an A Level/Vocational level study to university study can be difficult. However, those can be managed with help from others at uni.

The best aspects of my course is the teaching method with lectures and lectures led discussions helping to facilitate understanding and knowledge, which compose around 8 hours a week. My course is highly connected with the interdisciplinary fields of social science and so seminars which are around 2 hours a week help to contextualise the taught content within a wider educational context.

Our halls are very unique in the aspect that they are not located on West or East campus but just off West. As a result, the halls allow for residents to develop a good relationship due to the separate location, additionally it is a true reflection of the pictured “student life “. The part which I dislike the most may be that to get to the hall you have to walk across a path which has little lighting and as a result at night it can feel unsafe.

All the lecturers are very approachable and friendly, but my course is very easy and there isn’t a lot of work so far. I’ve been bored a lot because all of my friends are busy. I would’ve liked to have more contact hours.

There isn’t enough work and definitely not enough contact hours.

All very nice (a bit like a hotel style)
