University of Leeds

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

I love every aspect of university life- course, sports, pubs and clubs are outstanding! The students' union is one of the highlights at Leeds and meets so many needs. The only negative comment I have is about the university accommodation. It is a bit dated and the wardens are extremely strict, so it is easy to get into trouble with the university for silly things such as noise.

i'm the first year. the city is very small, but this helps to concentrate on studying a lot. Also the Uni encourages the self study. The Forum has everything a student needs.

University of Leeds is incredible for nightlife and there's always something to do. The union is a real strong point, giving students a voice and allowing us to shape our own university experience.

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

in my 3rd year studying Bsc Sports development and have been encouraged to do a Msc in sports management here the at UNI, The staff are great and really helpful with good bantar as well which is very encouraging these days. Overall the exp has been fun. the course itself covers a lot fo aspects from business marketing to comparative study and the UK sports development sectors and allows you the opportunity to do some research in barcelona for your 3rd year which is the best part of it all going NOU camp.The overall city life is good druing the academic years as its a student populated city so once its summer its a bit of a ghost town lol. Freshers is great for meeting loads of new people and the Union hve loads of societies you cannot possible miss.

Southampton, Solent University

Marine Operations FdSc

University rating (2)
Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

Firstly I am unfortunately associated with Solent Uni not out of choice. I am studying at Warsash Maritime Academy, which is now part of this atrocious university. Can you believe that when Warsash was on its own, it had many many acres of land, and as soon as Solent got involved, that land got sold on so they could better Solent Uni, and they left Warsash struggling to keep accommodation at a good standard.The SU is diabolical for those not studying at Solent, and even then all they tend to do is advertise other clubs, rather than making the effort of actually organising events themselves.The Uni wonder why they are not regarded in as high a steam as Southampton Uni? Because they offer what I like to call, doss degrees. You do not need to go to university to study make up. That is going to get you absolutely no where in life, having a degree in it. If you want to succeed in something as mundane as that, you need to look for an apprentice who will actually teach you to work with real people, as well as getting paid for it, not getting in thousands of pounds of debt for a make up degree and you'll probably have a job at the end of it if you are actually any good.Finally their website/portal is actually really good. When it works. I am extremely disappointed that during such a vital time for me, my exams, the timetabling system does not work and therefore because I live 20 minutes away from campus, I do not know where my exams are taking place. It is astonishing that Solent do not take our education anywhere near as seriously as they should. This is our future! Not your money making business. You should care about our wellbeing. Especially with the amount you charge, not just in course fees but also in accommodation etc.

My accommodation is horrible so if you come here make sure not to stay in east slope! The student union are quite poor as they don't organise many interesting events that lots of people go to. Also the facilities at the university are either expensive or not in very good condition. The only good thing about sussex is being close to Brighton.

University of Sussex

Psychology BSc (Hons)

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

As the university is so close to Brighton, there is so much to do with many shops, bars and clubs. The only criticism of Brighton itself is that it is quite expensive everywhere you go, but it is still a lovely place. The university is fantastic, my course is interesting and the lecturers put in a lot of effort to help you through the course.

University of Exeter is a great place to be if your main aim to is to get a good education. However, if your are in search of a fantastic night life then it is not the place to be. Overall, it has very good teaching foundation with amazing new built facilities for every need.

University of Exeter

Biological and Medicinal Chemistry BSc (Hons)

University rating (5)
Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

The university really is amazing. They really seem to care about the students. All the facilities have been upgraded including the New Forum. There is always somewhere quiet for you to work if you want it or you can go chat to your friends in their many lunch cafes. They put so much effort as well into making us favourable to potential employers, including the Exeter Award and their career zone. You can book yourself onto events like CV practice, application forms, interview practice or simply talk to an adviser. It's so easy to feel like wanting to learn here and everyone does seem to do really well. I also love the library! They are open 24 hours and you always see people in there working. They have a really good selection of books and if you want to read books from the other libraries (such as on St. Lukes) you can request it and it gets delivered, it's great. I plan on doing graduate entry medicine and I've been reading some books from the Health library. Although some people say the nightlife is limited, I disagree. There are some lovely bars and pubs in town where you can go with friends, or if you like clubs, everyone seems to go to Timepiece and Mosaic and all those clubs so its not bad at all. I personally think its good because I want to just do well on my course and many people here work hard so there aren't any big distractions yet you can still have a nice weekend to unwind. All in all, I would definitely recommend the university!
