Good student life, city is easy to navigate Resources for help could be better advertised More mock exams should be made available and more instructions on how to structure exam questions/what is needed to get a first More knowledge on how many marks needed for certain grades could be made more known

What students say about criminal-law

The commute links are very convenient as someone who has to travel from peripheries of Manchester .St James campus is very arranged and plentiful spaces and resources for students like myself however I must say there isn’t much of a social aspect example societies or events going on I believe due to it not being Edge Hills main campus However since my course is placement based when we do arrive to campus we naturally socialise and she one another’s experiences .Overall Univeristy social aspect is amazing considering lots of places to go since on Oxford Road Would be nice to have some events or even go to Main campus as a whole

i love the community - societies are great, i love how i’ve met so many people and get to do a course i love, the worst aspect is maybe how many days were in as it doesn’t see very worth it and facilities/resources for art students as we got £150 from an exhibition last year and they kept the money for “resources” however we’ve not seen any

Everyone I have met has been friendly and helpful. There are plenty of societies to join and the student union bar is great for a bit of socialisation on the side. I wish there were more green spaces to sit and quiet areas like the library dotted around. Parking is a bit hit and miss but there's plenty of buses.

What students say about criminal-law

Best experience is the facilities, and the student centre. Worst experience? I have two: the accommodation office and the actual course. During summer break, I am having a lot of problems trying to find somewhere to stay until September 6th, and they have offered me an extension in the same building where I currently am - on the top floor, and I am disabled, which they know. They five hundred quid for me to stay there for just six weeks - disgusting. Second - the course. I was really enjoying it until the summer placement (Bone Boot Camp). The mornings were fine, as we were talking about the skeleton - I want to go into bioarchaeology and osteoarchaeology when - or if - I graduate. There were too much emphasis on social media, or a 'Social Media Takeover' as it's called. ! And I thought archaeology and anthropology were sciences, not to be taken lightly, but this makes it seem like a joke, and a bad one, at that. It's clear this course is engineered to appeal to much younger students, and not someone nearly 50, as I am. I am good with technology, but I don't think social media should be part of this course, or career. If I wanted to be an influencer, I would be putting dumb videos on YouTube or TikTok. I just can't take it seriously anymore, and all this stress of what's happening right now? I am really thinking about dropping out, because it's not worth the aggravation. I gave up my home, and my job to do this, and it was obviously a sacrifice that I shouldn't have made. UCLAN is great if you're under 35. If not, you're screwed

What students say about criminal-law

There are excellent lecturers and student support services (particularly academic skills). The campus has a good feel and has a lot of outdoor seating which will be nice when the weather is warm. Lecture rooms are good but the seats are very uncomfortable. There is little impact from the students' union, for example there was no 'refreshers fayre' for January intake students, which also impacts the student life score.

One of the best aspects of my university experience has been the supportive lecturers and the creative freedom within my course. As a Fashion Design student, I really value having access to specialist facilities, equipment, and the opportunity to develop my own concepts. I also appreciate how industry-focused the course is – working on live projects and collaborations has helped me grow in confidence and professionalism. As a mature student and single parent, flexibility and understanding from staff have made a big difference. The sense of community within the course is very motivating, and I feel encouraged to push my ideas further.

What students say about criminal-law

I really wanted to study Health and Social Care further to enable me to have in depth knowledge and be prepared to potentially study a nursing degree. One major problem I was facing was not wanting to leave home just yet UCNL providing me that very option. The staff within Uni are supportive and friendly and accommodating. They always try and push you to reach your full potential.
