University of Worcester

Toilets are completely disgusting most of the time The rooms we are put in are usually inadequate for teaching The other facilities are good and the campuses are in good locations across the city Good parking access

The feel of uni and worcester as a whole is super charming and safe, even at night. Ive found all my lectures are great and additionally very friendly and supportive, especially when I needed mitigating circumstances in 1st due to illness. Can't comment so much on social life as I'm a master student and commute in. I would say that while staying near the university, there's not much to do/places to eat and its a little trek into town. There's plenty of parking on site for just a small fee per day. The sports facilities look good and of course they have the arena to train at. Was slightly dissapointed though to learn they didn't have an MMA society. Degrees at Worc are graded on a pass, merit, distiction system and graded with letters like american college. I found this a bit bizarre after being used to a 1st, 2:1 system and wish they'd change it to better align with other universities grading rubriks.

It is friendly university and you can ask for support when need it. Specifically for my course, we had amazing guest consultants that made the content very interesting. Downside, fees are getting higher and higher, and not much financial support from the university. ALSO, we had very limited mannequins to practise on for our OSCE.

I moved university's after a year elsewhere, and I find Worcester much better for myself and I have enjoyed myself much more. It is a small place but everyone knows everyone and it makes it a very close community which is warming.

University so far has been the best decision I’ve made. I’m really happy with my degree, I’m learning new topics all the time, I’m being challenged and I love it! I’ve made the most wonderful friends and the university is just fantastic as a whole, the facilities are brilliant
