The campus is absolutely gorgeous! A wonderful mix of old and new, castles and modern buildings. Reserving rooms encourages students to get out of their rooms and study anywhere on campus, from the top of the castle tower, to the communal "pods" at Commons. The Student Union building has a bar and a small shop, and activities going on almost every day. Karaoke every other Saturday is one of my favourites. Close enough to the city of Bath for easy access, while still having the feeling of a university town. Lots of student discounts and student bars/clubs in town, as the University of Bath is also nearby. Interesting classes, lovely lecturers and guest lecturers, and proper assessments. Few, if not none, tests, allowing for those who do not thrive with simple memorization to show off how they learn. The diversity of students encourages the broadening of your own world view. A wide range of courses, allowing for study into incredibly specific topics. The main issue with the university is the wait time for wellbeing appointments, as it can take up to four months to even get a foot in the door. This means that if you do need help, it is very difficult to achieve. Also, while it isn't the university's fault, it is important to know that the First Bus system is not very reliable, so if you have a job in town, it is quite nerve-wracking.

I attend UOG Francis Close Hall campus and it's so incredibly inspiring. It's a great oldy-worldy historical site and it was really the deal-breaker for me choosing UOG; although my course mates and I were severely let down when we were told we would have to move to Oxstalls campus in Gloucester... we managed to get the union involved but only managed to get it pushed back a year for us, all new students in September for social science will be in Oxstalls and won't get to experience the beauty of FCH. Such a shame. Despite this, the facilities are amazing, staff are equipped with great knowledge and are all incredibly friendly. All students are friendly and light-minded, it's a great environment to study in and socialise. I commute so I cannot speak on the social side of student accommodation and/or going out, but as a commuter it meets all my needs! I really recommend studying here, the lecturers know what they're talking about, and are amazing at illustrating theories and concepts in ways that make sense.

It might not be university specific, but the difficulties in commuting has a big impact. The university has been negotiating with the first bus, however, the busses are always full because of sudden cancellations. Since university is at the top of the hill, I would hope this to be improved significantly so I wouldn’t have to walk up or take an uber up which makes me too tiring to concentrate on lectures.

What makes it a great place to study? UWE Bristol is a great place to study nursing because of its strong focus on practical learning and real-world experience. The placement opportunities help build confidence and prepare students for working in healthcare settings. The lecturers are supportive and knowledgeable, and the facilities, such as simulation suites, help develop clinical skills in a safe environment. It also has a good, friendly environment which makes students feel comfortable and supported throughout their studies. How could it be improved? The university could improve by providing clearer guidance and support for international students, especially when they first arrive. Having more detailed information about academic expectations, placements, and daily student life would make the transition easier. Clearer communication and step-by-step guidance would help international students feel more confident and settled.

It is difficult to get to and from Cornwall, and a lot of activities can only be done if you have a car I enjoy the focus on environment and all the career experiences the university provides, as well as guest lectures and opportunities to explore other subject

Older campus tucked out of the way but super friendly and chill vibes all round. Especially the Octagon in the middle of campus, the two chaplains in there are absolutely wonderful and friendly people, and they have 2 dogs to cuddle if you need a furry friend lectures are more interactive with you as a student because of the smaller class sizes so they get to know you as an individual, and student support are great! The only negative I have is there are a lot of potholes and the elevators are often breaking. Overall, pretty good!!

I enjoyed the course and it’s structure. I believe, that it set me up well for my research project and gave me the skills that employers are looking for. The worse aspect was the lack of time for activities outside of studying. Lectures and assignments took up most of the day and evening, especially during coursework and exam season.
