They are always there for us to solve whatever queries we have. Also, my university accommodation helps us to maintain our well-being and metal support. There is also a visa compliance team and career team is there to makes us understand about visa rules and regulations along with career opportunities and job guidance.
Talking about a Student's union, we have two separate unions GSA(Graduate Student Association) and YUSU(University of York Student's Union). Those two unions are key important part of our student life because they always organize important university events apart from academics such as cultural events, festivals, and day trips around the various cities of United Kingdom. Personally I have travelled a lot to some beautiful cities in last 5 months since I came here, like Durham city, Newcastle, Leeds, New bay hall, some of the amazing experiences I had. So, overall our student unions put their so much efforts to make our student life more enjoyable and life-time experience.

The course which I'm doing in this university is the first time the University of York has introduced. So basically we are the first students who attempting this course in our university. So, my initial experience till now was good. Our professors are very gentle and helpful throughout the semester. They were giving us a very good and important feedbacks on our work and assessments. They are also listening to our feedbacks about this course so they can improve the course offerings for the next year students. There are little bit ups and downs with the modules of this course which can be happen if the university is introducing a course for the first time.
Overall I'm happy with my course and teaching in my university.
