Facilities are great, for me especially the rurally located vet school has everything you need including a fully operational dairy farm! And of course the referral hospital for clinical rotations. Bus services could be slightly better to the out of city cause though (inconvenient timings for free coach). Lecturers are all amazing and enthusiastic, practical facilities are first class (labs etc) and lecture halls large and comfortable. Many libraries and study spaces to choose from, and senate house is a great vibrant hub for social study. I wish there was a bit more guidance around student societies - I have expressed interest in joining a few and have not been given any info about participation after joining - so I feel like Im not part of the society, I just get weekly emails. I know that's more of a student led issue and must vary wildly between societies - but I haven't had a great experience, especially after expressing interest and applying for a role within the society and receiving no communication back at all.

Practicals are fantastic, especially anatomy! I personally would prefer more in person teaching, I struggle with so much asynchronous material as I like to go into university and be lectured!

Has been amazing! Really enjoyed living in Bristol and studying at the uni. There is lots to get involved in and the course is amazing. I am so happy that I have been a student here!

Good overall. Has a moderate sized gym but is horrifically overpriced. Has many cafes and study spaces.

Very good. We have a personal tutor and many of the senior staff are very friendly and are open to you having meetings with them to discuss personal and pastoral support.

Barely hear from the SU. It is miles away from the main campus, I’ve only actually been there twice in three years. The SU doesn’t keep us regularly updated and it doesn’t have anything to offer us.

Yes the main campus is only a short walk from the city centre and other amenities. It is along many bus routes and not too far from the train station.

Good there are lots of sports and societies to get involved in. Each of the courses also has many societies linked with it which is great! It’s nice to meet people who you otherwise wouldn’t have met.

I like that we are taught in a systems based way. I don’t like that we only cover things once and are expected to remember them forever!!

Lots of work placements done on our course, lots of guest speakers and ways to increase your employability are integrated into our course.
