In actually,Bangor university’s study fees is the cheapest university in wales and facilities Are new and good
Good
The dorms do not provide great support.
I think the only ways to improve Bangor are to have less hills, which isn't the universitys fault but leg day is now out the window. It helps many students went in need and the support system in place with student mentors is incredibly secure and has helped me quite a bit. University life is scary but I felt right at home when I came to Bangor, like a piece of me i never had yet. You can spell my name Brogan with all the letters of Bangor. This place is a part of me. Student life is increasing and is great fun, if only Academi was open again. The facilities is top notch, particularly in Pontio. All the access to technology and the thousands of books on access for every student. The student union are hard working and very much present. The location is right next to Menai bridge and the beach. It's gorgeous, even my walk to my lectures is a sight for sore eyes. When I feel ive had issues ive had brilliant support from my personal tutor and my lecturers. (I broke my foot).
Bangor is a lovely uni in a truly lovely part of Wales. I've really enjoyed my course! If you are hoping for a vibrant nightlife you won't find it here, however if you enjoy nature there's truly no shortage. The lecturers are decent but what truly makes it is finding friends especially in your lectures, I've found them to be properly the greatest part as they have been there for me through the ups and downs of uni.
Very nice place for learning and creating the opportunities peace full, natural, fresh greenery environment.
Beautiful and inspiring campus and dedicated staff.
The University location is not good it's very difficult to find jobs here and also the problem of classes at normal site it's a long distance for students to cover these are the only issues.
Best parts - amazing societies and volunteering projects, supportive lecturers, incredible location
Computers in the labs are slow not working fast. They are need to improve and giving paid and equal opportunities to foreign students.

The best part is the staff they are so helpful and supportive and are always willing to go out of their way to make your learning experience the best it can be. They are so reliable and welcoming they are the biggest reason I am enjoying myself so much at the university. The worst part is the number of study spaces, there does not appear to be many and those that are available are normally busy most of the time making it hard to find somewhere quiet to work. More spaces would be hugely beneficial but it doesn't negatively impact my experience because the course and uni are fab!
Comforting environment
My experience at Bangor University has been really positive. The lecturers are friendly and supportive, especially in the School of Computer Science and Engineering. I like how calm and peaceful the campus is, which helps a lot with studying. One thing that could be improved is having more career events and practical opportunities, but overall it’s a great place to study and I’ve enjoyed my time here.
The feel around in the community is very open and accepting. Though it is a small city and you largely need to travel to do anything. but the university itself is a comfortable place to study.
