What students say about counselling

Clifton has a solid, tight-knit student village feel compared to the city. It’s got everything you need on one site: great sports facilities, a massive SU, and a much more chilled, green vibe while still being a quick bus ride from the Nottingham madness. It feels like its own little world where you actually know everyone you walk past

What students say about counselling

The campus at the University of Nottingham is a beautiful place to be able to complete my studies. It has a welcoming and homely feeling. Facilities such as the David Ross Sports Centre and both libraries make it easy for me to complete extra activities such as netball and going to the gym, along with great places to study. Improvements involving the student union could be made, as I found it difficult to find out information about this. However, I couldn’t fault any other aspect of the University.

What students say about counselling

The university atmosphere and staff library, reception and the tutor are the excellent resources available to students, fostering an environment where academic growth and personal development can thrive. With dedicated mentors and innovative programs, learners are supported every step of the way. Although, making friends is quite difficult for me, it could be because my asian appearance, the students tends to just make all black groups and also white in the different groups. This separation can be challenging, but I am determined to find my place and connect with others who share similar interests and values. Engaging in campus activities and reaching out to diverse organizations may help bridge these gaps and foster meaningful relationships. I do not expect to be friends outside university , but I hope to create a supportive network within this environment. By actively participating and being open to new experiences, I believe I can cultivate friendships that enrich my university life.

What students say about counselling

Limited amount of shops in Lincoln, which makes it get a bit stale quick, but is still a lovely city with plenty of things to do. Another downside is the fact it is in the middle of nowhere, you have to get trains or coaches if you want to go anywhere else. However, it does have everything you need as a student, with a good night out as well

What students say about counselling

Location is great with parks, cafes, restaurants, pubs, as well as bus routes and easy train access to London/Birmingham. The campus is always clean and tidy, lots of seating/places to study with accommodation for students with additional needs. I'm concerned about funding issues as teaching staff face layoffs, especially in creative courses.
