Swansea has the best student life. If you are a party person this is the place you should be. Its been 2 months since i am here and everyday i have seen some or the other party taking place across the clubs here. But ocean and sin city are the real places to be. The boys to girls ratio is really good unlike some places. You practically cannot get bored at this place because there is so much to do. oh yeah! beach is the main attraction here if you fail to know.

As i am an international student here i would love to mention one thing is the nature of everyone around. Everyone is so helpful and kind that i just love it here. There is always a smile on everyones face around. It is not an issue if you are travelling alone from your country as you are bound to make friends here. Lectures and accommodations are just like any other university. A new campus has been built which maybe has some state of the art technology being used in class. In all i look forward for my uni life.

Swansea University

Nanotechnology, MSc by Research

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

Swansea is one of the most beautiful places in the UK. the beach is the main attraction. these best part about the campus is that it is very close to the beach. So whenever i get bored i take a walk on the beach. Also the university offers many activities like surfing, boating etc. on the beach. The classes are very well organised and there is not much of pressure on students. I have privately taken my accommodation and i am happy with it. I would recommend this university for certain courses.

I am studying mechanical engineering in swansea and I am much surprised by the quality of the education. I dint expect this to be soo good. Swansea doesn't have a high ranking in the league but it is working its way through. The new campus is amazing and the facilities provided are very helpful. A new scheme has started through which i have rented a tab for 100 quid. Currently i am staying on campus and i plan to move out in december as the accommodations are really basic. Overall i am satisfied with this university.

Wrexham University

Theatre, Television and Performance BA (Hons)

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

Glyndwr is quite a small university, and that suits me perfectly, the lecturers get to know you really well and inform us about a load of opportunities etc.. The night life isn't great, although it has improved since last year now BEANS runs the most popular nightclub! The town is small but it has a fair few supermarkets and cafes, so not all bad! My course is Theatre, Television and Performance, we are in 5 days a week, basically 9 - 5 nearly every day, so an incredibly intensive course but it does pay off and my confidence levels have soared! The lecturers are lovely, and take a real interest in our aspirations and our lives.

I absolutely love Kingston and there is no two ways about it! I fell in love with the area when I visited for the very first time and after meeting people at KU, I knew this was the right place for me to spend the most crucial 3 years of my life! There is so much to at Kingston that you are never bored and not just the University life is amazing but there is a lot of academic help at Kingston too! If I got a chance to do my masters and PhD here I would grab it with both hands!

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

The university is like my world now. I live here and I am gonna live here for the next 2 years. I absolutely love this place. Every thing is just perfect. The buildings, classes, staff, timetable everything. The campus is also a very safe place and there are people monitoring the places at night. There is also a shop on campus and hence i don't need to go out anywhere actually. My room is also amazing and it meets my needs. There are only 2 part catered buildings which is very less according to me. there should have been more part catered buildings. Also on weekends there are many beautiful places to visit around swansea. Beach is a major highlight.

Aerospace Engineering MEng (Hons)

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

I am studying aerospace engineering in the second year right now. The classes and all are fine. I dont expect much from this university as it is very low ranked on the table. It is working its way through the table though. There is a new campus opening in 2015 which is really really good. All the latest technology is being used for the new campus and the classes there will be picture perfect. Hopefully there is some improvement in the accommodation and larger spaces for rooms. In all a very good university with an average student life style.

Mechanical Engineering MEng (Hons)

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

I am doing engineering here and i love the lab sessions. The labs have all the needed equipments like simulator and wind tunnel. Its a fun experience to be here. The thing i love about this uni is that the attendance is not compulsory. The lectures can get boring sometimes. Majority of the staff is good but there are some which are just too much to deal with. Accommodations is good but the travel is too much. The student village should be near the university. There are limited rooms on campus and hence many of us are allocated in the student village. During breaks in between lectures I have to wile away my time here and there as its not possible to go back and through.Overall i am satisfied with this.

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

This is a perfectly average university. It balances academics and sports to a decent level. The academics are no different or special. It is like its been since always. The sports village is a good thing about this university. If you are a sports person this is a heaven for you. Every sport facility is available here. Another thing i like is the whole place has internet access (wifi). You don't actually have to go out of the campus as there are shops and cafes on campus. The accommodations are wonderful. I am not living on campus. I am living in uplands and this place i beautiful. It is a 10 min walk from here but i get big rooms and living area.
