The student support for mental health etc, is amazing and the staff try to help students to get the most out of the course as possible. The campus is beautiful and the campus east accommodation is very high quality. Something to be improved is the facilities on campus as everything was open on weekends last year, but this year all the shops and cafes and places to eat etc, on campus are closed on weekends despite students obviously living here on weekends too.

Best experience is the feel/life uni has given me e.g. my friends through my course as well as my position on my college committee - with the collegiate system allowing this to occur. Perhaps worst aspect so far is the semesterisation and how that has caused significant change within my department, mainly for the worst leading to a lack of teaching time, overall confusion to new systems and move away from lectures to 'problem based learning' which has not been implemented too well at the moment

The University of York campus is beautiful, with lots of wildlife. The college experience is excellent and makes you feel like part of a proper university community. There is also lots of places to get free food on campus. The campus bars are also great.

It’s a great place to study as I work on campus west and live on campus east so I love that I can separate my place of work from where I live. Also, the accommodation on campus east is amazing! I would love another bus stop outside Anne lister college as it’s quite far to the bus stop making it time consuming to catch the bus before lectures instead of walking.

York uni has a beautiful campus and supportive teaching staff. The collegiate system works really well and there are lots of college and society activities for those who don’t drink as well as those who do. However, the bus between campuses is no longer free and the replacement is less frequent and less reliable. The student support team can take weeks to get back to you.

I have absolutely loved my time in York. The University is incredible and I have made life long friends through the societies I have joined. The nightlife is great and super safe.
