What students say about late-medieval-history

There are so many places to study and just chill on campus. Be it the cafes and restaurants around or the university buildings. It’s really really clean and tidy too. The staff here are so nice too really kind. Overall super nice uni would decide to study here again. An improvement id really appreciate is recorded tutorials since I think they’re really fast. The help desk online isn’t really helpful.

Best aspect of the University being the overall student support, and the quality of academic life Worst aspect, I would have appreciated more events organised by the University that allow new students to make connections with other students.

What students say about late-medieval-history

Student safety and community feel is very strong. Lots of history surrounding the university and the town is beautiful. To improve I would have better transport for student to move between town and the nearest cities (like Edinburgh), better nightlife for the students and more accomodation.

What students say about late-medieval-history

I love the city in general. The University's libraries are good. with proper facilities that I can use, such as discussion rooms, computers, printers, even 3D printer! Some buildings look so old but in positive ways, make them look classic and cultured. However, in my own experience, some classrooms are a little bit aged. i mean, like some chairs are feel old, they are sometimes kind of wobbly, and some of them do not have enough leg room. Main library can be crowded when exam days come, but I think that is something that can not be avoided. i think it is good to add some space for classrooms or some like study hubs.
