The location isn't the quickest to get to but it depends if you're coming from Central City Centre or from Cathays. The campus is average looking minus the gorgeous art and design building and management one. The student support is amazing so I totally recommend. You just have to grab the opportunities for real, be honest, reach out and be willing to improve and make changes. There's a fair amount of places to buy hot drinks and foof. Equally there are places to get free clean drinking water, fridge, microwave and so on. There is also a gym near the front but I havent been in yet. There is also a horse riding place nearby so its a bonus to stip by and see them on quieter days. And I love Community Days where you get free bike repairs and tasty local food. All in all, the uni is great but you gotta sacrifice a variety of shops at your doorstep or getting out of bed earlier to get to class on time.

Its mostly in person and you get a lot more contact time with the professors than you would in other uni's. They are very friendly, supportive and knowledgeable so regardless of what you want to end up as, there will be someone you can speak to about it for guidance. A little bonus is getting to use the free colourful papers for notes, Sketches, anything. And theres a technician on hand who will help you through the most basic things without judgement. Also, there are lots of books, couches, fun little things around in the studio so its a nice place to chill.

The university is a great working environment with support from staff and great facilities and utilities.

The Graphics department at Cardiff Met is run by a dedicated and hardworking team who go above and beyond the support offered on a lot of other courses. There is an excellent range of workshops available across all disciplines and the print studio is especially helpful and dedicated.

Privately owned halls allocated to us via the university - they were fairly average university halls and the staff were kind but didn't seem very motivated. The rooms were fine but the common room for the flat was not well maintained - the building would have benefited from spaces where people from different flats to socialise.
