What students say about physiotherapy

I love the new city campus. It looks great and has excellent facilities, but more green spaces would be nice. The library is well stocked and there are plenty of study spaces. The teaching staff are excellent.

What students say about physiotherapy

Best experience is the facilities, and the student centre. Worst experience? I have two: the accommodation office and the actual course. During summer break, I am having a lot of problems trying to find somewhere to stay until September 6th, and they have offered me an extension in the same building where I currently am - on the top floor, and I am disabled, which they know. They five hundred quid for me to stay there for just six weeks - disgusting. Second - the course. I was really enjoying it until the summer placement (Bone Boot Camp). The mornings were fine, as we were talking about the skeleton - I want to go into bioarchaeology and osteoarchaeology when - or if - I graduate. There were too much emphasis on social media, or a 'Social Media Takeover' as it's called. ! And I thought archaeology and anthropology were sciences, not to be taken lightly, but this makes it seem like a joke, and a bad one, at that. It's clear this course is engineered to appeal to much younger students, and not someone nearly 50, as I am. I am good with technology, but I don't think social media should be part of this course, or career. If I wanted to be an influencer, I would be putting dumb videos on YouTube or TikTok. I just can't take it seriously anymore, and all this stress of what's happening right now? I am really thinking about dropping out, because it's not worth the aggravation. I gave up my home, and my job to do this, and it was obviously a sacrifice that I shouldn't have made. UCLAN is great if you're under 35. If not, you're screwed

What students say about physiotherapy

The university itself is very modern and clean. The law building in particular is very well maintained and a nice place to study. The student support line is effective and most queries are responded to however some are forgotten/ responded to weeks later. The library is extreamly useful with a wide range of text books and other resources which makes finding sources very easy. There are also lots of other study areas outside of the library which means you can always find a quiet place to sit and work. The surrounding area of Newcastle City has just about anything you could want, with it being just a 5 minute walk from campus you have easy access to shops, transport and other facilities. The only issue with this is for home students which might be travelling by car. I live in the countryside and have no access to busses or metro stations. This means that driving is my only option. Car parking is very limited and expensive. Almost all of the public car parks fill up past 8am and a full day of parking can cost upwards of £14. The university car park requires a yearly pass which costs £700 up front. This is just not manageable as a student to pay up front. Other than that I have had no issues with the university. They are also very inclusive with disabled students. Having a disability myself, they have taken the correct steps to ensure I have no disadvantages compared to abled bodied students and are well aware of the steps which should be taken when I have an episode. Everybody, down to the woman working the cafe on campus, went above and beyond to help me when I did have an episode. The situation was very stressful but the actions of the staff were brilliant and did everything they could. I have a lot of praise for Northumbria University and would recommend it to all students looking to pick a University.

The best aspects are the student union and the facilities available. I think it could be improved if we had more books generally available at the library without requiring click and collect, since right now the library feels like a study space but not a real library.

What students say about physiotherapy

Facilities are brilliant. Students are friendly. Lectures are friendly. However, as someone with struggles in organisation and other areas I find the lack of support really difficult. I feel like im a number in a system not a student as much so I find the course can be more challenging than I can handle even though I have the knowledge of the content

What students say about physiotherapy

The Arts building is by far the best thing about this university and my chosen course. The studios and performance spaces are top notch. You can even have access to so many instruments. So many nice facilities but access to them could be improved by extending the accessible hours. The building closes way too early (9 PM). Especially on the weekends (4 PM). Central location. The uni food is pretty mid so I choose Tesco meal deals more often unfortunately but if you’re not picky you can eat for 2 pounds at the beckett kitchen. Again wish they stayed open longer. Can’t say much about the union other than there aren’t many societies to choose from compared to the other unis.

YSJ is incredibly central to town, unlike UoY, and is within walking distance of a lot of what you're going to want from the city. As a language and linguistics student, I think the facilities are really good, and all the tutors are lovely. My experience with student support has been okay, although not the greatest, but when I was having counselling sessions with the wellbeing team, the person I had was lovely and really helped. It's also a very small campus; much more like a sixth form college campus, which is really useful and makes going between classes a lot easier.
