Sort:Latest reviewsI really enjoy my uni course. Met a lot of lovely people. The staff are fiendly and helpful. Advice - never leave things until the last minute. Work hard.
Expenisive accomodation but it is very modern. Uni is cozy and so I enjoy almost every moment with the tones of friends that I made. The train is very close and only takes 5 minutes to the city
I am enjoying it, but facilities could be better, Be prepared to do lot f self learning. Also make sure to have a ffew practical placement experiences, and talk about them in personal statement.
Small class sizes for the nursing curses.Alot of support from lecturers.
The university is 99% girls! For guys this is great but for girls it's kinda overwhelmed! In order to get in you need to have good grades and a relevant personal statement. Dress smartly for any interviews. Be confident and talk clearly and honestly.
I love university life. It is a close-knit university and has a friendly and mehoring athmosphere. Try to get experience or extra ciricular activities. Research on the module before applying to any courses in QMU. Great campus, recently built, beautiful facilities.
A small tight knit community of crazy people so if you are a bit out of the ordinary you will fit right into Queen Margaret. If you need to atted in an interview, be yourself.
Enjoying my course and meeting new people. Also I really like the accomodation and the fact that it is so close to the uni. City a bit away.
Edinburgh is the best and you can get there easily with the train.I like the uni facilities but I haven't joined any societies up to the moment.I advice you to mind your language when speaking to someone.
This Uni is the worst organised place I've ever experienced.Do not go here unless you are being paid or you hate yourself and want to be punished.
Good university but it is so far away from everything. The shop is very expensive and limited recourses. There is the tesco which is fairly close but still kind of far on a lazy afternoon! My course is really interesting and enjoyable though. I think once you live in town it's ok because there is always the train which takes 5 minutes from the centre to the Uni.
QMU is located only five minutes by train from the city center of Edinburgh. Accomodation is perfect and my room very spacey, although the price is totally more thank expensive. Gym is equiped very well and despite the fact that the students' union is small, it is very firendly and welcoming.
Overall QMU is a good university, with good facilities and job prospects at the end. However wouldn't like to live in halls as its too far from the center. Also need better transport into town.
Get involved in club or societies. Best way to make friends outside your course. Also take advantage of living in Edinburgh, it is a great city.
Too far from the city. Should make trains/bus pass. Union is awful. Halls are ridiculously expensive, but classes and course is really good. Really enjoying her at QMU.
The Queen Margaret University has very modern buildings and good up-to-date facilities, while everyone in the university is helpful and willing to help ! The atmosphere on the campus is very cozy and there are always amazing people to meet !
Qmu offers an engaging University experience, even though it is a small Uni. The facilities could have been a little better but it is still a new-built university !
Fabulous University. I is smaller than most, so its very welcoming. Good atmosphere around the university.
The university is very good. The environment is perfect, there is a bus and train station right out of the uni, people are friendly and especially professors ! Absolutely a very good choice for an Undergraduate degree.

I have enjoyed the past 3 and a bit years at QMU and I will be sad to leave this April.My advice would be to take advantage of all that uni life has to offer, join a sprts team and go to Shanghai on a Wednesday night.
