Not enough study spaces Pandemic ruined student life Course is very full on But I met amazing friends in first year before the pandemic and in 4th year after the pandemic
Enjoy the library and diferent kind of sitting areas. Didnt have a great uni experience due to covid, dont enjoy online learning. Find some lectureres very unhelpful and do not reply to emails

Best aspect was meeting new people, expanding my vocabulary and knowledge. Worst aspect is my timetable this semester as it wastes my time.
Lack of vegan options and spaces to eat at busy periods and the fact it’s cashless.
Overall happy with gcu, things can be improved on such as more vegan options, accepting cash would be beneficial to students, more sitting areas as often there is no space to eat.
GCU is a nice place to study! Although I think it might need some better accessibility for the buildings. Finally I think we need more events to increase the social life of students.... especially those who are coming from different countries and cultures.
Lovely staff and lovely environment
Some facilities could be fixed and improved and student union should definitely be redone and modernised a bit
Ladies toilets need improving. At least one toilet outside carnegie lecture hall does not have a door, many toilets lack locking mechanisms (at canteen), many do not have sanitary bins. Also cleanliness could be improved: often toilets are not flushed, toilet paper on the floor. The provision of free sanitary products is good.
Student union needs upgrading
Would be better if had more food places open Also the toilets could do with an upgrade with all of them

Great relaxed facilties, overall enjoyable environment


Covid has had a very negative impact, online learning has had many downfalls
Course content did not focus on very important aspects of the job. The practical sessions were good however there was not many of them and feel they could have been utilised better
