University rating (4)

The university has lots of different clubs and societies to get involved with aswell as good sports facilities. The university also has a multi-faith centre which hosts some really good activities like mindfulness sessions. The main building is a really old building and confusing to navigate your way around. It needs to be knocked down and re-built.

Aston University teaches students how to catch fish and not give the fish. Students are taught how to be financially independent after graduation. The institution helps to grow the entrepreneurial mindset of every individual. For me, it has been skills required to successfully manage a business and grow it beyond the current state.

Best aspects of the university life would be the sports clubs and the relation I have with my professors. The placement team is also very supportive and have helped me out a lot over the last year.

I think one of the best parts is that once you start getting to know the people in the course everyone is willing to help. I receive the best help be it from the lecturers themselves or mentors or personal tutors. Theirs always loads of events going on and so many things in which you can participate or volunteer. Everyone is friendly. I do hope the university offered more scholarships options for international students.
