The teachers are lovely, very helpful to me as I’m an estranged student and was really struggling when I first came to the campus. I live a little far out in Barnsley so the fact my building Surrey is so close to the station is great, doesn’t even feel like a commute

One of the best universities to study in 🇬🇧 Such a wonderful lecturers panel and support from the staff. I really recommend our university to all the international and local students who are interested in higher studies.

One of the best parts of studying at Roehampton University is the friendly and supportive environment. The lecturers explain topics clearly and are always willing to help when students have questions. The campus is peaceful, with good facilities like the library, study rooms, and social spaces, which makes it a comfortable place to learn. I also enjoy meeting classmates from different countries and backgrounds because it helps me learn new ideas and understand different cultures. The teaching style at Roehampton makes learning easier and more enjoyable. Seminars and group activities help me understand the lessons better, and the coursework is practical, helping me connect what I learn to real-life situations. I feel that the university encourages students to think independently and build confidence. Overall, I feel supported in my studies, and this has helped me grow both academically and personally. Even though my experience has been positive, there are some areas that could improve. Sometimes the workload feels heavy, especially when deadlines are close together. Communication about certain tasks or readings can be unclear at times. More career support, part-time job opportunities, and more flexible timetables would also make things easier for students. However, these challenges are common in most universities, and Roehampton still offers a good overall student experience.

As an international student, I was really scared when I first came to Middlesex University. I didn’t have much experience or confidence, and I was worried about meeting new people. But my classroom became a safe space for me. My professors were very kind, understanding and never made me feel judged. There was no discrimination at all. They cared about us not just academically but also emotionally. When I felt low in class, they took time to ask if I was okay and even guided me to get mental health support. That meant a lot to me. One of the best parts of my course ( MSc Criminology with Forensic Psychology) was the practical learning. We went on many field trips, like visiting the Higher Crown Court in London. The university also offers the Common Studies Programme in Critical Criminology, where students get to travel to other countries for conferences. All our modules were helpful and well structured. I was also chosen as the Student Voice Leader for my course. This gave me a chance to speak for my classmates, and I saw that the university genuinely listened to our feedback. For example, we requested fewer on-campus days, and our professors changed our timetable from 3 days to 2 days a week. They are very flexible and understanding. Middlesex didn’t just teach me academically; it helped me grow as a person. I used to be very shy and introverted. But I became a Student Ambassador, which is a paid part-time job at the university. This changed me completely. The employment team was very friendly and helped me create my CV and gave feedback too. As an ambassador, I learned confidence, communication, time management, teamwork and how to travel independently. I even handled events like HE fairs and spoke to students, parents and teachers. My managers were patient and taught me everything properly. I’m really proud to represent Middlesex as a student ambassador. There are also many facilities and opportunities on campus, careers fairs, sports, societies and fun activities. Sometimes I feel sad that my student life is ending, because the university has so many resources, and I couldn’t use everything. Middlesex also offers scholarships and alumni discounts, which make it even more supportive for students. I am not the same person I was when I joined. Now I am more confident and ready to face the world. Middlesex gave me not just a degree, but also courage, kindness and beautiful memories. I never felt like a left-out international student. I always felt like I belonged here. To me, Middlesex is not just a university, it is a place full of care, support and real experiences. I would choose it again without any hesitation.

The staff and students around the campus are always so welcoming and friendly. It really makes me enjoy where I’m studying. I think something that could be improved is the university’s response to student based issues.
