What makes my uni a great place to study is their student support. They try to help their students in any way possible to ensure that students get the best out of their education. I think it would be better if the university put more effort into societies and clubs such as sporting clubs and teams . It would help the university to have more of a community and really showcase other talents other than what students already study on their courses. My university do have societies and some sporting teams, however some of the societies don’t run anymore and it’s not made to be as big as it was when I first heard about it before I joined uni. I think it’s important to have that feel of community and university culture and to also show the inclusiveness of different cultures, groups and activities in which people associate them selves with.

As an international Environmental Management student, my time at Plymouth has been defined by two things: academic freedom and incredible support. When I faced significant personal loss and financial struggles that impacted my attendance, the faculty didn't write me off they gave me the flexibility to recover and succeed. The course itself is far more than just exams. I was able to lead complex, consultancy-style projects (like my work on Singapore Heat Stress policies) that felt like real professional work, not just coursework. The resources in the Marine Building and library are top-tier for anyone willing to push themselves. Plymouth offers a rare balance: it challenges you intellectually to reach distinction levels, but supports you personally when life gets hard. Highly recommended for students who want resilience alongside their degree.

One of the best aspects of studying at De Montfort University is the supportive and diverse environment. As an international student, I feel welcomed and included. The university has strong student support services, especially the Disability Advice and Support team, who are understanding and helpful. The MSc Project Management course is practical and career-focused. The modules are well-structured, and seminars encourage discussion and real-life application of concepts. The lecturers are approachable and provide useful feedback on assignments. Student life in Leicester is also a positive experience. The city is affordable compared to other UK cities, and everything is accessible. The campus facilities, including the library and study spaces, are modern and comfortable for independent learning. While the university offers good support, sometimes communication about attendance expectations and academic requirements could be clearer, especially for students managing health or personal challenges. In addition, more flexibility in seminar attendance for students with documented disabilities could make the experience less stressful. Providing recorded seminar discussions (where possible) would help students who occasionally cannot attend in person. Overall, De Montfort University is a supportive and career-oriented institution, but improving flexibility and communication would make it even better.

There’s lots of great opportunities outside of the course you’re studying, chances to learn new things you might not within your chosen course. The organisation of the uni could be improved, more staff to student ratio - I’m missing that close student teacher relationship.

Moving from Northern Ireland to Huddersfield to study Children’s Nursing was a big step for me, as I had to adjust to living away from home and being in a new place. The University of Huddersfield has made my experience very positive, with supportive lecturers who help me develop my knowledge and practical nursing skills. I have found the library and study facilities useful for my coursework and revision, and meeting friendly students has helped me settle in and make friends. I also appreciate the flexibility and support available to help me balance university work with my personal life. One area that could be improved is offering more social activities to help students, particularly those moving away from home, meet people and feel part of the university community. Overall, I have had an excellent experience and would recommend Huddersfield to other students considering moving away to university.

UCLan is a great place to study because of its friendly staff, diverse student community, and excellent facilities like the library and sports centre. It provides strong academic and personal support. One area for improvement could be creating more study spaces during exam periods and adding more campus events to bring students together.

The uni itself is beautiful and right in the city centre, there is lots to do around Nottingham and it is relatively cheap compared to other areas. Lively food scene and nightlife, and there are lots of parks and other activities in or near the city centre. Support from my tutor and course leaders has been perfect, my one complaint would be the lack of support regarding mental health. My tutor and course leaders have been extremely accommodating and attentive to the needs of disabled or mentally ill students, and counselling is available within the student union, however it is limited to 6 sessions and has a very long waitlist, taking (in my experience) 6 months to get an initial assessment. However, I have made so many friends and received support from both them, and the staff on my course. Would absolutely recommend NTU!

The facilities, from that which I've experienced, seem well-kept and up to date, especially in the production and DJ department. Though, as a musician, certain areas within the tech and instruments could be more well-kept or up to date, however the tech are always extremely helpful when there's any technical issues. Nonetheless, they haven't always been able to solve issues due to faulty hardware. The location is possibly one of the best for London's music scene. Not just that, it provides short journeys to other areas of London day and night life, making it great for students new to the city or looking to socialise outside of the uni. Student support has, personally, been pretty good. When it comes to more general and relevant issues either in one's personal life, student life, or career, staff respond within fair times and with genuine care. When it comes to more complicated issues, however, such as personal troubles between students in the classroom, I feel they could be more quick, make active rather than passive decisions, and strict with their feedback towards the actions they disagree with from either parties. The Campus is distinct, homey, and reflects the environment well. It feels not only personalised to music-fans (which the students of course pretty much all are), but it's also well-kept, modern, and unique to the university. Student life, I think, isn't really tailored to people like me. It's very career-oriented. Everything feels like business lingers behind it, and, ultimately, it often feels more like a work environment than a university. This is likely to the advantage of people in their mid 20s or later years, which the majority of the students seem to be, but to me, at 20, it feels like too much of a shift to adult-life. In my previous university, the student life felt extremely inclusive, relaxed, and united. Here, it feels much more difficult to find personal connections with people just for the sake of it, which has affected my mental health so an extent, I believe, as I don't know many people in London outside of the university. The Students' Union I am personally not very well-informed on.
