Hi there, I'm Luna.
I'm a bit like an AI, except instead of making pictures of people with 16 fingers, I can help you find the perfect course and uni.
Would you like some help in your search?
Our collection of real, honest student reviews of unis and courses is the largest in the UK, and helps you make well-informed decisions about your future. Student reviews also form the basis of our annual Whatuni Student Choice Awards (WUSCAs), which highlight great work carried out by institutions for their students.
Its an amazing uni to study at i have had no issues
The uni itself is beautiful and right in the city centre, there is lots to do around Nottingham and it is relatively cheap compared to other areas. Lively food scene and nightlife, and there are lots of parks and other activities in or near the city centre. Support from my tutor and course leaders has been perfect, my one complaint would be the lack of support regarding mental health. My tutor and course leaders have been extremely accommodating and attentive to the needs of disabled or mentally ill students, and counselling is available within the student union, however it is limited to 6 sessions and has a very long waitlist, taking (in my experience) 6 months to get an initial assessment. However, I have made so many friends and received support from both them, and the staff on my course. Would absolutely recommend NTU!
There are many different study spaces around campus that are all great to work in for different reasons. The library is open 24/7 and is split into different study spaces for people who want to work in a quiet environment vs people who want to work with their friends and talk. The university also has many societies that are great ways to socialize with others and make new friends. One complaint I do have about the university is the amount of construction going on at all times. It feels like every week there's a new construction project being started, and some of them last for months, which can be very distracting and annoying for students.
There isn't much to say about the downside, but a few of the benefits are student support and great surroundings, including the environment, people and the uni.
The best aspects of my university is the greenery its the best. The university is mostly surrounded by greenery and is peaceful and is a little far from the rush area. About the worst aspects i have not been in a place where i had a bad experience but i think the the income operation should like give time they email that if you dont pay in this much in 7 day then they will block the portal and like that . This gives a pressure to the students so i think they should give atleast 2 weeks time.
Overall, I’ve had a really positive experience here. The academic support is solid, and the facilities (especially the library/labs) are top-notch. The lecturers are generally very passionate and approachable. The Best: The sense of community and the variety of societies available through the Students' Union. There’s always something happening on campus. To Improve: The communication between departments can be a bit slow sometimes, and I’d love to see more affordable healthy food options in the cafeteria.
The course in general is not taught to a high standard. We cycled through now 5-6 teachers in one year because they all either couldn’t teach or were fired. We did not get our assignments to start until halfway through the course, which meant that the current teachers had to compile al the assignments into about 4-5 months creating a lot of work in not a lot of times, for example giving us 4 assignments out of the 15 total a year all in one week. The management are honestly awful and can’t get in good teachers just random subs all the time and for the first half of the year the teachers regularly didn’t show up and were always at least half an hour late. The actual college wellness team is quite good and helpful as well as the canteen. The location of the college is good by Stratford Park. 10-15 mins into Stroud. Overall I would not recommend the college for any science course.
Best aspects: The international community here is genuinely great, being around people from so many different backgrounds makes the experience a lot more interesting, inside and outside the classroom. Areas for improvement: Communication could be better sometimes, information can feel scattered across emails, Blackboard, and other channels. More events aimed at international students would also go a long way.
We're lacking a lot in terms of music facilities, or facilities available are very old/decrepid. Bangor is a very beautiful area, however ot is a struggle to get around with mobility issues. Everyone here is friendly as we're a small community. It has a cosy, warm vibe.
Great teaching and best infrastructure

It is a good university with a modern academic staff, which is quite adequate for the department I chose.
