More communication between students and staff please in terms of individual student aid
Good facilities to do uni work. More societies on the Cardiff campus
It is close to cardiff central and everyones creative
Best- the area and course
I miss the student shop and there's a consistent lack of functional lifts.
Everyone I’ve meet is amazing and I’ve really enjoyed my time here
Everything is central to Cardiff. Lots of opportunities and events. I wish there was more media related opportunities at the uni in terms of more recording type of environments like radio stations we could join.
Great experience
Everything is good I don’t have any bad aspects
As an international feel amazing. Lecturer & staff support.
It’s a very personal experience, the lecturers know you and what you’re about. This helps me massively as I don’t think I’d thrive in a 600 person lecture hall. That’s why I prefer our uni.
The weekly newsletter gives great insight into career opportunities and welfare. The mental health awareness and overall importance on student wellbeing is highlighted which is an important factor to me. One thing that could be improved is just the organisation and availability of events and classes. Outlook had some issues in my first week. Otherwise, I am enjoying my study here so far, with it being my first UCAS choice it is meeting plenty of my expectations!
slaying
It’s really expressive and open!
Have been enjoying uni a lot. Just wish there were more clubs and societies of my interest.
the location is good as its close to the train station which makes commuting easier, the elevators tend to be out of order quite often since i started here which makes it difficult to get to certain classes that are on higher floors, i also imagine it heavily inconveniences disabled students who need those facilities to get around campus. Toilets are clean and accessible which is very useful.
I don't like Stan Evens but the people are alright
Love the course, facilities, endless resources, a d community. However, the students union leaves a lot to be desired. The societies are ok but none are based in Cardiff so they're unattainable and the students union never does anything
The facilities and location are great, I would love for the student union and student life to be better


Needs better organisation
Not very well organised
Paint was falling off the walls but everything worked properly
