What students say about psychology-and-counselling

The campus is really beautiful, full of nature. Scottish people, including all the administration members are helpful when you are an exchange student. However, I find the campus a bit far from the city and the accommodations are not as good as I thought.

What students say about psychology-and-counselling

I feel the QMU is a very forward thinking university. They are constantly adapting how they deliver classes and the resources that are available to current students and alumni. However as it is a small university there is not the same level of extra curricular activity available and resources avale to student.

What students say about psychology-and-counselling

First of all, Edinburgh University is located in a beautiful city, the capital of the British country of Scotland. It has many opportunities for non-academic activities and great places for coffee and food. The University is fully modernised, with excellent facilities and amenities. The academic environment is very friendly and there is always help available for students, be it for work or mental health.

What students say about psychology-and-counselling

The best aspect about my university is how good teachers allow student to do most of the material online if we wish too. One thing that should be improved is the explanation to students related to important resources that are made available to them such as the ability to borrow a laptop for the entire duration of the year. But overall the University facilities are good.
