Nursing (Mental Health) - MN

University of York

There are excellent lecturers and student support services (particularly academic skills). The campus has a good feel and has a lot of outdoor seating which will be nice when the weather is warm. Lecture rooms are good but the seats are very uncomfortable. There is little impact from the students' union, for example there was no 'refreshers fayre' for January intake students, which also impacts the student life score.

Best - campus, education quality, the city of York, lots of character Worst - getting from east and west campus and the distance of east from town centre

All facilities you will need are super close walking distance. The campus has so many different spots to either do work or just relax. Lots of accomodation choices, lots of societies and sports and opportunities to take part in the wider community in and outside of the university. One downside is the proximity of food shops as walking takes a while.

I really like the people and the support we get from second and third years through the STYM and STYC programs ran through the colleges. I also like the support the student union gives to all the subjects, we have a student rep for each year of study and cohort. This makes it really easy for our issues and concerns to be heard but also ways for us to suggest improvements to the course and the way it’s taught to us.

Everyone has been super approachable so far, I've never felt scared to reach out. But in terms of my course specifically, I wish they put more effort into their society, and that we had student mentors like other courses so I could ask for help from an experienced student in my course.
