What students say about theatre-dramatic-arts

Plymouth Marjon University is very good for student support. The lectures all make an effort to get to know their students and offer support where they can. There is not much within walking distance of the university however the SU is a great place to sit drink and hangout with friends.

What students say about theatre-dramatic-arts

For my course specifically, the facilities aren't anything outstanding despite being ranked supposedly top in the country when I applied. Campus itself is pleasant but located in suburban area, bit far from anything. Student life, fairly moderate but compared to bigger cities could be seen as lesser. However, UoE support system really does catch my praise, always someone available to contact if you are having a problem with something, personal tutors always available for whatever it may be concerning you.

What students say about theatre-dramatic-arts

The University of Staffordshire has a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. The lecturers are passionate and always willing to help, and the campus has a real community feel where you never feel like “just another student.” The facilities are modern, and the hands-on teaching style makes you feel prepared for real-world work. There’s also a great balance between academic support and social life, which really helps you settle in and enjoy the experience. And how could it be improved? Communication between departments could sometimes be smoother, especially around deadlines or timetable changes. More study spaces during peak times would also be helpful. And while the support services are great, extending their availability during exam periods would make a big difference.

The support is overwhelmingly good. Plus the diversity of backgrounds make it a home for all irrespective of religion or orientation. Sometimes I feel like I should study a course that will take me more years to complete
