The best parts of uni experience is it has got very good facilities like the library, own careers office, lecture theatre, the court room and much more, the worst part is that the lecture classes can sometimes drag, but just make sure you had a good night sleep especially if it is the morning one and always stay focused

Best aspect: One positive aspect of university is the financial resources available to support students, such as scholarships, bursaries, grants, and access to part-time work on or near campus. These resources can reduce financial pressure and allow students to focus more on their studies. Universities also often provide access to subsidised facilities, learning resources, and student discounts, which can make higher education more affordable compared to managing these costs independently. Worst aspect / areas for improvement: Despite these resources, financial support is often limited, competitive, or not well advertised, leaving many students unaware of the help available to them. Living costs, accommodation fees, and international tuition fees continue to rise, which can cause significant financial stress. Universities could improve by expanding financial aid, offering clearer guidance on available funding, and providing more consistent support for students facing unexpected financial difficulties.

There are many study areas in the main building, both social and just leave ones when you feel you want to have a peaceful study session. There are also study rooms available which come in very handy when you need to work on group projects. It was initially very difficult for me to get around what with being a first year, however there are many boards up signalling what directions to go in for which rooms. I wouldn’t really say there’s much need for improvement at Aston as they have many facilities.

Best experiences are working within the kitchens amongst other culinary driven peers. The student support is good too. Things that could be better are the resources provided for culinary students as it seems to be a reoccurring issue where the isn’t enough produce to make a dish and this can be understandable at times however in order to work to the best possible ability we need the best resources and quantity too.
