Great student support!! Never not helped me and are very very understanding no matter the circumstances. Teaching is very high level! The placement of the uni is weird as it’s on the street but can be better sometimes but my personal preference is to have a full private campus.

In terms of facilities, LSBU offers a great range from library hubs, study centres, a sports hall, a cafeteria, a gym and much more. These benefit students not only academically but also socially. You can join a variety of social societies and clubs which help students find people of similar interests to them. This aspect of university is very important as it can feel like a daunting new experience at first, so making new friends and joining social clubs can really help in getting into the motion of things. Student support is also really great, the staff responsible for getting back to students via email are always efficient and give answers or direct students to where or who they need to ask for the answer to their questions. The campus at LSBU has improved drastically over the last year. There have been renovations and a new location for the library. The look and feel is modern, sleek and bright which greatly improves motivation to study as well as the ability to focus for a longer period of time. There are comfortable chairs and sofas also available which also attract students as they can feel 'at home' when studying. The location of the LSBU (Elephant and Castle) is somewhat lively but it lacks variety when it comes to food places and things to do. If students want to find more of a variety of food places and things to do, London Bridge, and Covent Garden are the nearest locations that would offer that. Student life can be improved at LSBU by creating more social events, such as, gatherings, dinners/ balls, trips, and parties. There are a few freshers parties at the beginning of each academic year but there is still a lack of social events where students can go just to socialise and make new friends. Students' Union can also be improved by encouraging more students to voice their opinions and experiences studying at LSBU and how they think LSBU could improve. This can be done through short surveys or ratings that students can complete efficiently.

From the start of my course i have a really good experience in terms of teachers and university facilities. Students union is very active in dealing with students matters and i hope that i will get a job after completion of my degree.
