A fantastic university life beckons for all undergraduates who come to Swansea University. A fantastic location in Singleton Park, opposite Swansea bay and a, quite literal, stones throw to the beach to take time out or to revise. A great social life if you throw yourself into it with plenty of clubs to join. Sport is brilliant at the university with a world-class, Olympic swimming pool and running track. Highly recommend the thriving intra-mural football league for anyone interested in playing football every Wednesday and Sunday (weather permitting). Great socials after each game. Highly recommend living in the Uplands / Brynmill area after your first year in halls. Great pubs for a different night out to the usual trek into the City Centre, though Wind St is a must most weeks! I wouldn't be the person I am without Swansea University!

The swansea university campus is built on the swansea bay. Most of the people know swansea as a quite, beautiful place. But once you are here, the place is crazzyy. Right from the freshers week, I had started bonding with people and as everyone around were new, it was not a task. There was so much to do when I had come here and I had no idea how my first month flew by. I always feared of being home sick or being bored or being alone but since I have been here not once I have ever felt like that. My lectures are spaced out and the best part is all the lectures start late mornings. So every possible day I dont have to get up in the morning and catch a bus to the university. Student village is the best place for any student as you can be surrounded by students always. The disadvantage of living at the village is that it takes a toll on your academics. I find it pretty hard to concentrate and someone or the other is always having a party around. The last minute submissions are also not possible because the buses running on the route can get crowded very often and hence delayed. Swansea has both good sides and bad sides but is for sure the best university.
