The best aspect is the smaller size of the organisation. As a student, UA92 naturally allows you to stand out a lot more then an traditional university. And when the whole game of Uni is to build the best CV whilst studying it certainty felt like a leg up in that competition comparted to others. The advantage of the size also naturally flows into other aspects of uni, such as student support. You will come to know the majority of staff really well and that helps with the overall support you receive. Overall, the more relaxed , no exams and amazing staff really creates an environment for a student to thrive.

No exams is a massive win in itself. I'm not saying that from an effort perceptive but an academic one. I've always done well with courses but I've always failed with exams. So therefore taking that of out of the equation has allowed me to focus on my ability rather then worry about performing in a few hour-long exams. The placements and internships are massively beneficial. Most lecturers have vast connections in their given industry and allows students to experience life in professional sport. Now the University has and continues to build meaningful partnerships with clubs such as Manchester Utd & Lancashire Cricket. For example, for the last few cricket seasons Lancashire cricket has hired around 4/5 paid interns from the uni. Having a paid opportunity, to work 9-5 in professional sport prior to graduating gives you an amazing advantage on the CV but also to get a feel to where you might like to work in the future.

The university is an exceptionally different and unique uni, that has its own modern feel. It does not feel like a normal uni with its beautifully architecture and grounds it is always so much fun. I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience here so far, the courses are different from anywhere else and provide by theoretical and practical learning. Instead of sat inside a lecture theatre, being talked at got hours. I am in a small class actively learning and having great 1:1 teaching and support which I am so grateful for. The support system at the university is another great aspect, it provides an amazing well being team and great resources to help all students. They have massively helped me with my mental health and learning difficulties and I couldn’t be more grateful as I know I would not receive this anywhere else. The university also has incredible opportunities with its contacts and partners, it enables all students to have these endless opportunities of experiences and work towards their degree which would not be accessible anywhere else. The lectures all follow a different teaching approach, which is not the norm and I appreciate this massively in helping me learn. Providing both so much learning support and great vibes as well as the chance to be as independent as you want to be. I couldn’t fault the university in these aspects and I am so excited to the next few years and what else it is going to grow into! Accommodations is developing on sight which will be much easier for the next potential students.

The course has been amazing so far, I have learned so much and also been pushed so much by myself to widen my knowledge and be engaged and confident in lessons which I never had before by my lecturers. Each course is unique and has both practical and theory learning which fits everyone. The small classes enable great 1:1 learning and support, this enables all students to thrive and really have the support of their lecturer. The contacts the uni has enables them to bring in people relevant to our course and give us extra knowledge and networking opportunities. It is exciting and a great opportunity to be able to have and learn off all these amazing people.

Great location to live in, it has everything you need around it in walking distance such as, tram stops, the uni, a gym, tescos and Lidl and Aldi etc. it is a perfect uni student accom as it being so close to everywhere!

Once the apartments are taken over by the university it will be much better and that everyone is all university students so It feels more like a uni halls.
