52nd

University of Sunderland

star rating 4.3

NORTH EAST ENGLAND

If Sunderland's student reviews could be boiled down to three words, those words would be friendly, welcoming and affordable. The academic staff get a lot of shout outs for being super supportive and willing to go the extra mile to help students in need. Facilities are well reviewed as well, and there are several mentions of free travel options between campuses and accommodations.
