First I was unconvinced of the university, I've never heard of it and I didn't really want a rural campus, but now I'm loving the uni, I'm so glad I went here, the experiences are great the night life is brilliant and the subject I'm studying is amazing. I'm loving time and university and the staff are always really helpful.
The university is small enough so it is a tight nit community but large enough so you there are a lot of people to choose to speak to.
