easier access to understanding emails and who are the specialist
A friendly and small campus which makes for strong relationships and good levels of student support. Unfortunately, facilities are lacking with limited options for healthy hot meals and aspects such as the main campus coffee shop closing at 3pm. I feel that the campus and facilities have declined in the 3 years I have been attending.

Inclusive with lots of materials and resources around to feel a part of the uni family
The staff are all great and really understanding when it comes to being 10 minutes late because of traffic and ferries! The uni is in a really highly congested area in terms of traffic so is difficult to navigate to sometimes. Student support has been really fast at helping with council tax reductions etc too. However the rooms are not big enough for the cohort size so it is often difficult to find enough chairs to fit everyone. Also the food facilities are not great and they’re aren’t a lot of options in terms of hot meals.
Marjon is a small university which makes it very easy to know and access the facilities and help you need. As a foreign student I have found Marjon less daunting than any other univeristy and everybody is very friendly helpful and welcoming. I was able to find a job within the university which was a great support for my integration.
Great staff and lots of support. Just would like more clinic space/ classrooms for osteopathy.

First gen student
Great student support, lecturers who are passionate and knowledgeable which makes learning it easier, and great facilities and equipment nearby to aid learning.
For me, the location of Marjon University is hidden and gives the feeling of a quiet, secluded community. However, it is also close enough to supermarkets and the city centre for students who wish to use this. The nature and environmental aspects of Marjon are appealing and provide a nice place to sit and study during the summer months. The support students receive at Marjon tends to be positive overall. Despite some improvements needing to be made in relation to certain aspects of support delivery, the staff are keen to listen to the opinions of students and take such comments seriously. Student support staff deliver a professional and person-centered approach who really work with students to make their time at university the best it can be. There are certain facilities at Marjon which require improvements. Although some places around the campus, such as the main hub restaurant, has been updated to give it much more of a modern aesthetic, it is clear to see that other areas need improvements. Facilities at the sport centre, for example, are mouldy and damp which does not provide a good look when members of the public visit. Similarly, certain accommodation quite clearly needs updating. There is a big issue of mould and damp in certain halls of residence. Accessibility around campus also needs to be a focus. There are multiple students who are wheelchair users who find the campus’ accessibility difficult and frustrating at times. Lifts are often out of use due to maintenance issues and ramps are dangerous to use due to steepness and lack of lighting.
I love studying at Marjon the Staff and feel make it feel like a community of like minded people who want to excel in their academic studies. The library is my favorite place to get work done, with helpful and friendly staff who are always ready and happy to help. The new and improved Hub is a great place to relax and catch up with some friend in between studying while grabbing some food or drinks to keep you going. When I began, Barjon was the place to be, and when this closed during the day, second year felt like it was lacking this element. However upon returning for my third year the University had really considered the need for a place to be able to unwind, and excelled with the Hub. I feel like some of the areas feel a little outdated (such as some of the toilets) however they are all fully functional and keep to a great clean standard. Parking can be an issue and while I am aware this is a separate company, the markings for where you can and can not park are not all clear. I feel Marjon should work with the external company to improve the parking further. I truly love being part of Marjon and will feel lost when I no long attend but grateful that they would be the reason my future profession is possible.
