What students say about performing-arts

The student life is great and the campus is huge and conveniently located near the city centre. Since it's such a big uni there isn't as much chance for staff/student interaction as one might want, but I'm generally loving my time here.

What students say about performing-arts

The community feel at the university of York is wonderful. The campus is always buzzing with students and has so many nice areas outside to sit and chat or decompress between lectures. Sitting by the lake and watching the swans and ducks is one of my favourite places to eat lunch with friends. Overall, I've had a great experience with interesting lecturers and supportive supervisors for lab projects, and would recommend York to anyone looking for a welcoming, well-rounded and high quality education experience at University! Improvements could be made in the delivery of information between management and students, especially regarding the future of departments to ensure all students feel represented, respected and informed about the next stages of their teaching.

What students say about performing-arts

Students union is amazing. Lots of places to go and study and have food. Lots of student accommodation near the university and SU. Very easy access to social bars/clubs from the university area. SU hosts lots of great events and the student club is surprisingly good. Only problem is the city is so hilly!

What students say about performing-arts

As a student at the University of Sunderland, my experience has been overwhelmingly positive. The university offers a diverse range of well-structured academic programs, providing me with valuable knowledge and skills for my chosen field. The faculty members demonstrate a genuine commitment to student success, fostering a supportive learning environment (an example being the feed forward targets on every assignment to help me improve on the next). The campus facilities are modern and well-maintained, offering state-of-the-art resources for both academic and extracurricular activities. I appreciate the university's dedication to diversity and inclusion, creating an inclusive atmosphere that celebrates students from various backgrounds (as an international student, i have benefited a lot in other to deal with culture shock). The availability of support services, including excellent academic advising and career counseling, has been instrumental in my personal and academic development (i have also enjoyed the one - on - one study skills appointment with library officials). Furthermore, the university's intervention through the English for Academic Purpose modules have shaped and made my learning process easier as an international student. Overall, the University of Sunderland has exceeded my expectations, providing a comprehensive and enriching educational experience.
