What students say about social-studies

I gained an MSc. with Arden University. The below first statement assume to be the worst experience, but it is also blessing in disguise. There is a saying that ''All work no play makes jack a dull boy'' The university does not have it's own garden or field, but there are numerous accessible fields, parks, garden, museums around including the prestigious Tower of London Royal Palace. Historic royal palaces, with great pictures and artifacts to behold. London Bridge and many more, just across the Tower Hill Campus. Same as other Arden University Campuses. Though they specifically choose best location for their campuses. Best Uni experience. The University learning model is excellent. self pace learning support, the Virtual Learning Environment VLE is pact with great both personal and customer support, easy to access and progress. The submission process, the assignments and exams support are straightforward when you get to understand how to navigate around the VLE. You just want to learn and gain more knowledge with Arden University.

What students say about social-studies

The reason why University of Cumbria is such a nice place to study is because you receive all the support and guidance necessary to enhance your knowledge and professional skills. The campus is lovely, clean and has all the facilities. I am thankful to the lovely lecturers who are dedicated and experienced and made each and every module enjoyable to learn. I feel that during this radiography programme I have improved so much in all aspects and became confident in practicing what I know.

What students say about social-studies

Best - The food is Very good, The behaviour of Staff is decent, The students are sometimes a pain in the backside but most of them are nice, the outside area is pretty good, the location could be a little bit better but it's good, the courses in college are also good, I would personally say that Blackburn College is a good college to go to, however It has some disadvantages such as the way and the behaviour of some staff towards students and students behavior towards staff. Another disadvantage Could be the wait for your food as there is too many students trying to get a drink / food (I would recommend that 1st years, 2nd years and etc get a different break as this would decrease the wait time) the Atmosphere of college is good, The health and Safety in Blackburn is also good but it could improve a little bit by the security of the gates for students and staff since some people (that don't have a lanyard) they may enter the college area whilst be able to have full access to the area that is off limits to people that aren't students / staff I would recommend that, some students can make their own group (no bad ones, just kind ones) as maybe this option may let students to be more creative and to have a chance for becoming a powerful person.

What students say about social-studies

It’s a great place to study because the campus and the convenience of the student accommodations/ houses near campus is good. It is also good teaching wise as most of the professors are top tier. What could be improved is that the support is horrible. When students are stressed we don’t know where to go especially the team of law is not supportive, even the professors are more supportive. It’s hard to be understood by them or to get some clarity. I wish they’d be more helpful

Worst is library computers, they have to include usbc for computer extension. I like the organisation I wish they had more international student support considering we’re paying 3x more for the same thing
