Tell us about your overall university experience so far.
The experience hasn’t been exactly what I thought I would be, I’ve struggled a lot but with the uni/ facilities they have been great and I couldn’t see it going any other way especially as we were in a pandemic this year. I do have this constant thought in my mind about the financial part as everything was online this year I didn’t feel like I was getting the most out of the money, it can be quite lonely sometimes when you’re not allowed to meet up with people so there were lots of highs and lows for this year.
Facilities
How good are your university's facilities?
I haven’t been to many places due to Covid but the library is incredible has a great access to computers and books.
Student support
How good is the support offered by the uni? Think both academic (tutors/feedback) and personal (counselling, etc).
I’ve reached out to well-being a few times and the support has been exceptional. I get a lot of help in classes too. Although I have sent emails multiple times about other issues in our flat and they haven’t been as helpful which is why I’m giving it a 3 star.
Lecturers and teaching quality
What do you like most and least about the way your course(s) are taught?
I give it a 4 stars, the teachers are amazing and really put in the effort, however I’m someone who really struggles learning online, I get very distracted so find it rather difficult.
Career prospects
How does your uni make efforts to increase your employability (careers department, work placements, transferable skills)?
I’m only in first year but they have talked about internships and opportunities a lot, so it’s really great. Especially as I’m only starting out I wonder what it will be like in the third year.
