Lifts could be improved but overall the campus is great and in a great location for the city centre and student accommodation
Wish they were more inclusive for international students but otherwise a wonderful experience!!
Love
course is really broad
Best aspects are the lecturers they’re great and it’s very informative and the campus building has a really good feel to it. I don’t live on campus so I can’t speak about that but when I am here I enjoy myself, the library is really nice.
I've really enjoyed my time at USW and I find the campus and student life to be fulfilling and helpful The university is cutting funding in a lot of departments though and my lecturer feels too overworked, due to this it feels as though we are having less quality lesson time
Frequent water damage and damp smell, numerous areas where its been months since they were cleaned, majority of course is self directed and is completable outside of uni course
Beautiful building, staff are very friendly and accommodating. Course is incredibly fun and well facilitated.
Would be nice if the lifts started working :)
I think USW is a welcoming place to come and study
There are barely any societies and I wish there were more, and I've also not heard about many social activities from the uni.
Close to the centre and facilities are amazing, but barely any societies and not many social activities
I love Cardiff and I love film
Good facilities and equipment Badly planned lecturers sometimes
good
Education wise it has been great, but not much choice in the societies and clubs so havent been able to connect with as many people as I had hoped.
I'm learning a lot more than I expected to.
Pretty good fair play
Lowkey fire just wish sports were on this campus


Central and the staff are reliable
Love history. Crime, vice and lowlife is the best. Andy is a great lecturer
