I really love this university and I’m so grateful to be in here. Also in HRM faculty there are multi talented lecturers. I love the teaching patterns they use to teach us, specially senior lecturer's teaching patterns.

The whole ethos of USW is inclusivity, student support, building confidence and skills to enable the best future outcome. There is activities, support and services to help you get the best outcome as a student and future graduate. The cafe attached to Ty Crawshay is a lovely place to sit and relax with coffee (the coffee is good), the staff in the cafe are really friendly and remember your order if you tend to have the same as I do. I am a mature student that put Law very much on the back burner decided to go for it and have no regrets. I love studying Law and I love studying at USW. I definitely chose the right university to study!
The support i was given in the my three years of training was amazing , i felt very supported.
Very close to home for me, although it is all on a hill which can be exhausting. Lecturers are very friendly and helpful
I found there's a lot of services offered to students to help them meet people and most of the courses are really well structured and catered towards students. I feel like the university could improve by increasing their student support in regards to complaints and course issues
I've met some really great lecturers and students here, I mainly hate the hills as they are difficult for people with disabilities
For me everything is perfect I love staff as a international student they are very friendly to us and very supportive
It is very friendly university tutors and students are all very happy and easy to approach. the University is very easy to gain access too and it has everything that a student would need.
Could have better facilities
Its class, the hill kills you
Best - sports facilities Worst - the hill we have to walk up

Daily habits guide is lacking unless you are taking a resits and get different people support your needs. I had to asked many people this following: Productivity hours to keep up the universities demand. I found out after in my resit section: 12 hours of work. 3 hours of either nap and stimulating learning touch typing and speed reading . 1 hours lay down : sitting outside or lay on the bed. 8 hours of sleep I had to asked teacher prepare in first resits in universities which should have to been from the first attempt in my first year degree. Food knowledge how to cooking have no clue so I had to ask student who have well polish (most international student do far better then uk student males) for my own point view. I had to manage moods swing by 500liter morning water intake and ice inside my hat when sleeping because there isn’t any ac in the room in the accommodation. Bathroom is stuffy. Repair come in 3 week delay or rarely 1 day notice meeting your needs. Internet in lesson can be disrupted when there host is down causing cancellation my first year it had but sadly I cause us missed important worth of content in Oct last year in 2022 to 2023. Blackboard isn’t very reliable due to limited in files and sometime the host forgotten to added new content for future reference. Last year there didn’t use there tv stands to promote there webnews outlook for upcoming events this year in 2023 to 2024 it started using because report from students didn’t know about it. Now it has given relived. Chairs in accommodation is lacking some houses have some don’t have. Vacuum is bad due to puking and dust mite someone forget to take out. Most of it get jam. So I had to buy none cordless And hand with light in the dark has reduces waste time and quick access. House ; much better having specific people to cover strength and weakness so once they come together there exchange knowledge and wisdom for self development. Last year: there were lots of dicreemantion And bit of language barrier. Lacked of disability awareness. Support fund plan they didn’t act on it fast. But this year for well known student like me resits the support had be useful and helpful on time. This can be worrying for upcoming student who needs helps. Because don’t want to lose freedom for summer break and headache from the head of course to be on your neck.
Incredibly helpful team. From lecturers, to immigration support, to accommodation services.
