Tell us about your overall university experience so far.
Its a lovely campus feel, nice and small so you know everyone and everyone knows you. Feels very safe. However transport to and from campus isn't great and parking is difficult and expensive. Student support is okay but could be better, for example more funding to help people who need more support but who don't qualify for whatever reason for DSA support. Accommodation services could be more dynamic, and the students union are not great at catering to healthcare courses, for example we are here most of the year but they only run during term time which can feel quite isolating.

Teaching is brilliant and they want you to succeed. The on campus learning facilities are great and available most of the time upon request to practice. Tutors are always around for meetings and advice and they never say no to questions or concerns, they are genuinely interested in making sure we are okay and feeling happy with the course.

What do you think about the safety, condition, location and cost of your accommodation?
Poor value for money when compared to other universities. However staff are often very responsive if slow to problems that occur. I am happy with my room size, mattress, outlets and wifi, they have all been excellent and there is enough space in the flat to store everything. Some kitchen utilities have seen better days but everything still works.
