The lecturers are very supportive, and there are good facilities here.
Lovely uni
Its nice
Staff members and teachers are helpful and support students that are struggling, students also have their own personal tutors that can support them according to their needs individually which is good.
The location is good. However, the campus is not very good.
It’s local to the high street, friendly staff, and helpful people.
The tutors are great and the opportunities for things like student work and studying abroad have been very important in making me happy with my choice of coming to Kingston. On the negative end, I think some parts of the campus need renovation as they feel a bit dated. Renovations have happened in some areas but not all.
Very helpful staff but some lectures aren’t as good as others.
Very good uni, take care of their pupils and has great mental health support.
I like how friendly and encouraging my tutors are, my classmates are also nice. I do sometimes feel like the course could be improved though as there is often a lot more talking than making, e.g. the CHS module feels like a completely other subject, I'd rather be assessed on my creating than writing, and feel like it should be optional, I want to focus in making and this can add stress ir unnecessary distraction. Feels like the environment could be more creative overall, and I also wish the student life was better e.g. more clubs and societies, festivals and events to join to meet more people. We also don't have studio space as design students, which can be hard sometimes. Its also hard to book workshops and sometimes you have to wait weeks so it can be off-putting when you want to try new techniques. There are definitely some good parts but it can be dry sometimes and I think overall the course, and university events need to be more lively. We also have to fundraiser ourselves for our final exhibition so I wish the university would invest more into it, as this is an important event.
Best aspect is the library in Penryn road and the facilities available.
Best: good environment and nice area, nice place, and a lot of things to do. Improvement: more career stuff.
Very unorganised.
Its mediocre
It’s a beautiful uni but doesn’t have as many facilities as others do.
Would be better to have more activities and events.


Love the community and how easy it is to make friends.
Love the content of the subject. The lecturers are really helpful and support you through 1 on 1 teaching
The room spaces aren’t really big enough. I feel like the bathroom needs to be renovated a bit more because it feels old
