During my time prices have risen especially in the su, however this is expected due to the cost of living. Student social is great!
Uni life as a whole at this uni is just amazing

The su is bad.
The social life and buzz around harper is unreal with Wednesdays being the main student day with all the sport fixtures and a night in the barn (su) afterwards.
Great campus feel, but structure of lectures could be improved.
Lecturers are subject experts or worked in the industry

Best aspects- It’s a smaller University campus than most, giving it a more intimate feel. You know everyone on campus, and it makes it easy to get more independent support from the services the University offers. It also makes it more comfortable getting involved. Worst aspect- Location is a drawback for the University, it is incredibly difficult to get around if you do not have a car.


The best aspects is probably the teaching. Personally for me the worst aspect is the location being that I had to buy a car when I first started to ensure that I had some form of autonomy.
As the university is small the lecturers are able to get to know you which makes lectures particularly engaging. Variety in teaching such as crop walks, lab practicals and classroom teaching makes the time table very varied
The daily cleaning was very good. Security response when we had problems was brilliant.
