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.
The university campus is beautiful, but parking nearby can be difficult. The campus has its own train station, which is unique in England, and the train to the city is cheap. The University of Birmingham often schedules teaching sessions in different locations and at varying times each week. This can be great if you like exploring the whole campus, but it’s harder if you prefer consistency and familiarity. There are lots of food outlets on campus, but they tend to be overpriced, not very good, and surprisingly not very sustainable (they mostly use disposable dishes). There are, however, microwaves and hot water machines that students can use. The library and its services are excellent. The central Aston Webb building is also stunning and really makes you proud to be a student here.
Try to add extra activities after classes to encourage everyone to interact with each other as the international students cannot make a lot of friends. Just to make sure they can ask for help from the students that are familiar with the teaching system.
My university experience has been overall positive, with the best aspects being the supportive learning environment, access to good facilities, and opportunities to collaborate with diverse students, which makes it a great place to study and grow both academically and personally. However, there are also some challenges, such as limited access to past exam papers, occasional lack of clarity in communication, and the need for more practical or hands-on sessions in some modules. Improving these areas would make the overall student experience even better.
It's a great university for international students in every aspects like teaching,learning and environment
Edge Hill overall is a good university. The campus is really pretty and there's lots of places to study. However, halls have had some issues and it's a challenge to communicate with the accommodation and facilities team. My course is good! The student union was a bit of a waste of money because nobody uses it
UWE is such a great school for international students. You can get lots of opportunities and connections.
The uni is always striving for improvement. There are always activities going on for students. HOWEVER: the ubiquity of could do more for student security/safety and also the hygiene. There are currently rats in the library and also rats in the main building.
Great location and everything in walking distance.
