First gen student
The university offers plenty of support and resources, but the sports facilities, particularly the gym, are lacking. The main issue is that the gym doesn't have enough space for people to work out comfortably.

My experience at Brunel University London has been a mix of positives and challenges. On the positive side, I’ve been enjoying significant academic growth, deepening my knowledge in subjects I’m passionate about while enhancing my critical thinking skills. I’ve also been building lasting friendships and expanding my network with peers and professors, and engaging in extracurricular activities has been providing a refreshing break from studies and fostering personal growth. However, a notable challenge has been the limited accessibility of drinking water; while it’s clean, I need to walk to specific locations to get it, which can be inconvenient for students.

Best: Active campus life, activities on Fairs and Welcome Week, Meeting House. Worst: Matresses of the bed in student accommodation are very poor, the heating in particular accommodations is not effective for all hours and sometimes during the night becomes really cold when you are trying to sleep.
Best: - having the opportunity to work for the NHS in real life job positions and gain valuable experience providing you with high performance skills. Worst: - Personal tutors (PEs) during placement (I will be talking about PEs who are working for the NHS, because that was my experience) are not properly prepared for international students and the culture -worklife-way of living shock they experience when going directly to placement after a short amount of time living here, in my case was only two weeks after summer break back at home. I was experiencing difficulties with my PEs to the point of wanting to discontinue my studies at how overwhelmed I was by both placement and their approach. - The placements offered for Occupational Therapy are mailnly clinical, in hospitals or rehab centres decreasing carreer prospects in other settings such as School settings, other emerging roles in occupational therapy.
Groups allocations have been as we liked them both times of request. Internet not working as well as we would all like, and at all in the kitchen, but it still works fine.
