Such a prime location in Newcastle with constant student activities and involvement on campus.
I think there could be more seating in the library as it gets very crowded and busy quickly. The student Union is really good and I think our campus has a really nice feel to it.
The environment and teaching facilities are convenient to use, and my supervisor and classmates are very friendly and willing to help my classmates, which quickly helped me adapt to the study life abroad. If there is a problem, you can quickly find a dedicated person in charge to make adjustments.
Parking is horrendous and it’s too expensive
The employees, staff, ask4 help are all top notch friendly and understanding. Althought if I do actually see anything that’s close to bad, it would be when I do have an enquire it takes 2 days to reply.
The campus is accessible and there are lots of places to do independent study. Support available is really helpful.
The location and environment By bringing up activities for first years
Offers a range of business courses which greatly benefit my aspirations and achieving my goals towards my career
From what I've been told the student union at Newcastle uni is better but I never thought this one was that good anyway but maybe I'm missing something. For the good, I like that it's not too confusing to get to places, pretty easy to figure out, and most of the staff are great.
The library has lots of floors to study on, work on group projects etc. Wish the food was cheaper

The classes are well equipped, the library is excellent, which gives students good study support, and it is in a good location. I would like the temperature of the classrooms to be improved, they are freezing.
Overall great, from resources to staff, but lacking in some support areas. The SU feels a bit disconnected and the campus is undergoing some construction work.
i feel very safe when i’m on campus
friendly and constructive teachers, could be more organised with communicating term times a bit further in advance
The location itself is fantastic, there is lots to do in Newcastle and the university has a really good way of making these opportunities known to you, especially ones that are free or cheaper or more accessible for struggling students. My worst experience would be that when I joined slightly later than everyone else the university, despite my constant communication, was not very helpful in getting me settled or caught up. I found it was really hard to get a response on the help that I needed. Despite the amount of time it took and initial lack of support, since then I have found the attempts at support brilliantly helpful and feel comfortable and confident in my place at Northumbria now.
beautiful environment
Best experience is the lectures and things they do near student Union such as Christmas lights turning on
I really enjoy the location of the university and how I have met my friends today. I think the support recieved from tutors is great however, I feel as though some lectures are very repetitive
