What students say about acting

The staff and students around the campus are always so welcoming and friendly. It really makes me enjoy where I’m studying. I think something that could be improved is the university’s response to student based issues.

Amazing teachers! Really friendly people feel right at home and being Surrounded by people who are interested in the same thing is a great experience. The main building has a older look and diversity could be improved but they are working towards that and are culturally sensitive as a POC they do their best to make you feel seen and heard

Best Aspects of Studying at the University of Chester: Beautiful Campus and it is friendly and inclusive atmosphere. Staff and students alike are approachable, creating a welcoming environment for learning and personal growth. As for the worst aspects, the acoomodation cost is high.

Best - I like the wide range of facilities provided such as the on campus library and access to shops within the campus Improvement- more support in terms of essays and one to one support being available. Also on campus living could be improved with a more appealing social areas and better laundry services.

There are places to study and meet with friends or do group projects. The location is good as there are plenty of buses to get you there. The new library isn’t the best. Timetables change and sometime you don’t notice or it’s inconvenient.

What students say about acting

Leeds Arts Univerity is small in size, meaning there are few noteworthy Student Unions in comparison to UoL, but does feel welcoming and safe. The university's student support is freindly and helpful from what I experienced; LAU is a very inclusive organisation and does strive to support students with a variety of services available. The campus is a little dull looking, with few spaces looking vibrant in contrast to the many white/grey hallways. I was able to use the Film/Photography course's cameras as a Music student, however the university's facilities seem somewhat limited as a whole, with spaces and equipment scarce close to submission time.

The best is the people and the lecturers. The facilities are vast meaning support is available for many issues not only academic. The place that may need improvement is the social accepts as it may be hard to make connections for many.

What students say about acting

The community is very diverse and inclusive, you can find a lot of other people like you and get talking. Laptop borrowing, computer rooms, and lecture halls are useful and conducive to learning, and the professors want you to do your best and encourage you to achieve, giving good guidance as well. Student support can be hit or miss - I was not contacted by them in first year, and had to contact them myself so I could learn about what support they can offer me, but when the agreements are in place, they are quite good. Collegiate campus has amazing nature and building design, beautiful and on Ecclesall Road, and both campuses are easy to get to from the city centre. The Students' Union does not feel like it is part of the university - I have had little interaction with them, do not know the full extent of what they offer, and do not entirely know how they work, and so it does not seem like a top priority or the first thing one may think of when they think of Sheffield Hallam University. However, this is not the universal experience of the Union, and others may say differently. Overall, the university is rather good, and my experience is largely satisfactory.
