I picked Bangor uni because it sounded like it had a great student atmosphere and my course sounded perfect. I’ve not been disappointed, Bangor uni is welcoming, easy to join societies and make friends, a perfect location next to the sea and mountains and the city itself is small but great. My course is so interesting and I feel supported by my tutor and lecturers

The course is taught both online and in person, I’d say about 70% in person and 30% online for me. The lecturers are happy to answer any questions and always upload recordings of the lectures after so you can rewatch. My tutor is really supportive and helpful and I’ve found it easy to make friends with people on my course.

My halls are really nice. The rooms are a decent size, they don’t feel too small. The kitchen has sofas and plenty of storage space so it’s easy to socialise and have parties in the kitchen. The security and cleaning staff are really friendly and always there to help if you need anything! In the second half week I accidentally blew a fuse and the power went out while we were having a flat party, the security fixed the fuse for us and even joined in with beer pong!

The lectures are generally interesting and engaging

One of the science buildings, bramble, is pretty unaesthetic but all facilities are in good condition

Very affordable but did have an issue with silverfish at one point
