I think it could be improved by more mixers to help people meet more people.

The campus is really good, it has everything you need to spend your entire day on campus, and the University helps a lot with funding and to help struggling students. They offer us helping hands meals which is a 2 pound meal, so if you need to spend the entire day at university you can eat without having to spend too much. Improvement would just be having more events for first years, because most society meetups usually end up having more 2nd, 3rd year students than 1st.

Absolutely love the facilities and how easy it is to meet new people and have fun, as well as all the places we can go to to study. The only comment I could think of would be the prices of products sold on campus (quite expensive), but I saw that some measures have already been been taken such as the £2 meals, which is absolutely great.
Best - societies and social aspect and university facilities Worst - some lectures

Amazing university! I had a lot of fun so far. Definitely improved my life experience! Multicultural.
More student clubs and activities Cheaper gym
Senior admissions officer is useless and provides false information. University can’t honour their terms of the student contract and will cause endless hassle to solve one issue
The Univeristy is great for building life skills and independence. The modules taught are informative and clear as well as enjoyable. However, the administration teams are unprofessional, and I was left waiting for my final year results with no explanation or prediction of when I shall recieve them after everyone had already got theirs. The majority of the lectures have attitudes that are inappropriate and rude, bringing down the reputation for the other lectures who are professional and approachable. Some modules where unorganised and wasted time and coursework was not explained so majority of individuals failed. Overall, the University is sufficient and a good experience, but some modules and administration lack the professionalism required for a university.
The only real positive to the University is the student union and the various sports clubs and societies. Everyone tries their hardest to help students and give them a good social experience , despite the university making it hard for them. However the University’s policy with restrictions despite extremely minimal to no COVID cases makes it very difficult to have a good time. Also, pretty much all the University needs investment with the facilities all constantly needing maintenance due to them being either extremely outdated and old or just not being fit for purpose. It’s also almost impossible to contact anyone for a response with regard to support or help. For example, I reached out to the accommodation team with a question (in fact I emailed them multiple times in first term) and yet I still am waiting for a response when I finish the 1st year in just a few weeks. Similarly when I moved into my accommodation it was filthy and required a deep clean done by myself before I could properly move in. As well as this I am still waiting for replacement curtains that I requested for on the FIRST DAY as they were broken when I moved in. The overwhelming amount of negatives really ruin the student experience and to be honest I think nearly all the staff at the University need proper training as it seems that they are unable to provide the basic services required at a University.
