Overall the uni experience has been great so far however, support lacks at times as they sometimes focus more on grades than mental health. The campus is beautiful and it is a useful place to get work done as there are many seating areas as well as high quality wifi.

Studying at CCCU is an experience of a lifetime! Great job prospects, cool faculty members who support with more than is expected and studios and labs are very easily accessible.

Amazing student support team, very helpful and supported me to gain the confidence I needed to thrive. Facilities are extremely clean and support all students regardless of disabilities to be able to attend their lecturers and seminars.

Firstly, the University location is good because it is near a train station, so makes it easier for commuting students to attend all their timetabled lectures, labs, and seminars. The University also have great facilities such as many scientific equipment for experiments that most schools don't have access to or can't afford it. There are also many designated areas for students to hang out in, helping create a sense of community and a way to socialise. The lectures and course directors in the CCCU'S FSESS department are amazing. They always are willing to talk to you about their subject and help in any way possible, not to mention they are very friendly and make it easy for students to feel comfortable enough to talk to them. Finally, the Science, WECS, and Geography courses are much more hands on than other Universities, and Sixth form. With a plethora of lab sessions and fieldwork to take part in every semester.

All staff are so supportive and patient. All my lectures have been incredibly informative and my lecturers have always taken the time to answer any questions that I have. The disability team are also supportive, offering both face to face and online sessions to best suit me.

Great atmosphere, great facilities, so much support available if you need it. Lecturers extremely knowledgeable and approachable. Library is amazing, I go there in my spare time to study as well. Not without a few niggles with timetabling and staffing, but it's difficult times so, personally, I'm very understanding with these things, and can't hold it against them. Would highly recommend this university to anyone.

I have found the University to be a fantastic place to learn as a mature student. I may not take full advantage of the social aspect of University life, but it is there if I want it. Being autistic, I have found the University to he attentive and supportive throughout all aspects of my course. The setting in Canterbury is stunning with the Verena Holmes building overlooking both St Augustines Abbey and the Cathedral. The Uni is well situated within the City and everything is within walking distance.

Lecturers are not teaching properly.

The university is in the beautiful and historic town Canterbury and close to the centre. The university has 2 new buildings and state-of-the-art facilities. The lectures are very helpful, quick to reply your email. You get a PAT (pesonal academic tutor) to There are lots of information and support for students, wellbeing and career advice. Thre is a gim, Student Union and many activities are going on through the year. The vurtual information space used by the uni - Blackboard, may be a bit confusing to get hang of it for 1st year students. And room for lecture and course allocation are not well thought. The rooms might be too small and inadequate in terms of desk space to write on or high definition PC screen to use during image viewing lectures.

Student support often forgets to check up on students. Extensions team don't always respond. To be a part of the community it is best you live in student accommodation, otherwise you don't have many ways to feel included. Campus tends to be very clean and easy to navigate. Maps are found around campus, helping students find the right building
