Not a lot of night life
weird culture middle of nowhere
Good campus veterinary facilities are very new and the hydrotherapy centre is great
SU is kinda small but is vibes Really good student support Campus is pretty especially if you’re into agriculture or come from that sort of background
Good environment, great community, and great courses
Campus is beautiful and being rural gives it a really relaxed feel. Some of the buildings could be updated but overall are wonderful. Staff are great, the course is hard but really interesting but can be difficult to commute in for lectures sometimes.
Great atmosphere and support for students
Really friendly atmosphere and great place to be. The facilities help enhance my learning
The lectures are interesting and interactive so i feel if helps to create a deeper knowledge of the information, as well as this the lecturers are knowledgeable and will help with any questions that i had and provide me with the correct answer and see that im on the right track. they are easily approachable and will always answer their emails. The variety of buildings to accommodate for everyone’s course is immense and the library is so successful with a large variety of books on the shelf as well as a huge amount online with onsite people that I am able to talk to for advice and help with essays. One thing i would improve at Harper Adams is the Vet Physiothearpy equipment. They have a lot different types of equipment for example a water treadmill and swimming pool for dogs but however lack any sort of equipment for the horses. Equally the horse facilities aren’t as big at harper as other competitive universities such as Hartpury and Bishop burton .
The best would be the deluxe hot chocolates in the library , and the worst would be the smell of poo. However, after a month your nostrils adjust and you become immune so it really isn’t so bad.

Nice environment, plenty of space to go on walks. Good studying environment, library is accessible at all times and has a cozy atmosphere. Shops are not too far away and it’s not an overly busy area, like big city universities. Facilities could be improved as hot water can be temperamental however, the uni are quick to fix it and student services/the accommodation team are helpful.
It’s a lovely uni. Some su night are boring but the rest is great
The safety of the campus even after a night out, an fb the shuttle buses
Harper provides a safe and good environment in the social aspect as well as on campus living being made to feel secure and safe at all costs
They are very supportive and there’s always someone to help if you ask
Great campus and facilities.
There is something for everyone in terms of student life. It is particularly great for agricultural students as the university has the farm on site.
The school has very good facilities for learning as well as for student life. However, the remote location of the school may have some impact on the after school life of the students, but due to the location, the school has a good agricultural learning environment.
In terms of knowledge, I have learned a lot of relevant professional knowledge, and I have increased my ability to think, reason, compare, distinguish and analyse aesthetic judgements. Rather than learning the knowledge taught by different teachers, it is more important to learn the thinking process and way of my teachers, so that I can be in an intellectual state, possess and maintain learning. Xi's ability helps me analyse and solve problems, pursue universal truth, cultivate responsibility, and constantly improve myself on this basis. Independent thinking means that when I was in college, I could meet people from different places. Different living environments make everyone different. This difference can break your previous cognition and let you understand different life situations. In fact, people often learn to imitate in getting along with each other. This kind of imitation is imperceptible. A variety of people and this complex information in society make me understand the true appearance of the world. The most obvious thing is to improve my ability to criticise and doubt, and learn to distinguish various information in a large environment and re-recognise them. Recognise yourself, break the process of reshaping oneself from all aspects, make independent minds, and grasp your own destiny.


Make the SU cheaper
