Online MBA with Accounting

St Mary's University, Twickenham

The best thing is the supportive and approachable teaching staff who make learning engaging and practical. The campus environment is friendly and diverse, which creates a strong sense of community. However, one area for improvement could be providing more study spaces and longer library hours during busy periods, as it would help students manage their workload more effectively. Overall great experience

One of the best things about studying at St Mary’s is the strong sense of community. The campus is smaller and more personal than many universities, so it’s easy to get to know lecturers and fellow students. The academic staff are approachable, supportive, and genuinely invested in students’ success — they take time to provide feedback and offer guidance when needed. The location is another highlight. Twickenham and nearby Richmond provide a calm and safe environment with beautiful green spaces, while central London is just a short train ride away — offering access to internships, part-time work, and cultural experiences. The university also emphasizes personal development and employability, with helpful career services, guest lectures, and opportunities for networking. The diverse student community and inclusive atmosphere make it a welcoming place for international students too. Areas for Improvement While the university has many strengths, there are a few areas that could be improved. Some facilities — especially study spaces and IT resources — could be modernized or expanded, as they can become quite busy during exam periods. Additionally, communication and administrative processes (for things like timetables, coursework submissions, or module changes) could be clearer and more efficient. Increasing student events and social activities, especially for postgraduate and international students, would also enhance the overall university experience.

Small, community feel, lecturers treat me like a person rather than just a number, lots of library support and great social aspect with societies and events to create an inclusive feel! - wish there was more car parking spaces to make commuting easier
