Studying at University of Aberdeen has been a truly rewarding experience because of its supportive academic environment, knowledgeable staff, and diverse international community. The university encourages independent thinking and research development while also providing students with guidance and opportunities to grow both academically and personally. One area that could always be further improved is expanding student support and social spaces even more, but overall it remains an inspiring and welcoming place to study.

There are so many places to study and just chill on campus. Be it the cafes and restaurants around or the university buildings. It’s really really clean and tidy too. The staff here are so nice too really kind. Overall super nice uni would decide to study here again. An improvement id really appreciate is recorded tutorials since I think they’re really fast. The help desk online isn’t really helpful.

I simply like everything about my univ. They are structured, well organized, people seems nice. It's a new experience for me and so far so good as I just recently started and have not got any bad aspect yet.

I think the university has a lot of good societies and clubs for students to join, making it easier to meet people and make friends. All the lecturers and staff are really engaged in our learning, they want to support us to do our best and try to make adjustments to the course/assignments where they can to help us. I do think the buildings could be better for people with disabilities, such as more automatic doors, ensuring lift maintenance is a priority and putting card scanners for doors in a accessible location. I also think it would be good if there was options to pick up extra modules or tutoring for those that need help with English or want extra help/studies on certain elements of their course or want to learn something new on the side.

I feel that I have still learned a lot, but many of the assessments have been changed from practice assessments to essays or tests. I just can’t wait to be on campus because I know it will be so much better. I can’t give a proper opinion until I see what everything is like for myself

I love the city in general. The University's libraries are good. with proper facilities that I can use, such as discussion rooms, computers, printers, even 3D printer! Some buildings look so old but in positive ways, make them look classic and cultured. However, in my own experience, some classrooms are a little bit aged. i mean, like some chairs are feel old, they are sometimes kind of wobbly, and some of them do not have enough leg room. Main library can be crowded when exam days come, but I think that is something that can not be avoided. i think it is good to add some space for classrooms or some like study hubs.

Great place to study. The staff is amazing from the lecturers to the janitorial staff everyone is so nice friendly and welcoming. Better student health services especially surrounding mental health. This uni is so prestigious and focused on keeping up their reputation that sometimes the people working or learning aren’t heard. The individual isn’t heard and appreciated as much as they should be. Sometimes we just feel like numbers rather then valued individuals in this community.

The staff are great! They are always there for support and I never feel like I do not have someone to approach when struggling. Having a personal tutor is so beneficial as well, as you always have them to talk to whether it be about your studies, personal matters or career paths! I also love that it is all one campus so no need to run between building to building making it to classes as they all link in some way. The student wellbeing service is also a great support system in place, the counselling service is extremely helpful and an amazing thing to have built into the university.
