The overall ranking is decided by students from this institution rating them in a 2026 Whatuni review. This forms the basis of the Whatuni Student Choice Awards (WUSCAs for short).
As I study a degree at New College Durham I find that I get a lot of support and our tutors really care about our education and wellbeing, as opposed to other universities where there are a lot more students. I know how much support I have available to me and where I can find it if I need it. College could be improved by having larger classrooms for us all to fit into more comfortably.

Our tutors fought for us to get back to face-to-face teaching as soon as possible which shows they really care about our education. Once assignment's have been handed it, we get them marked and handed back within four weeks. We get a workshop for every assignment so that all students understand what it is we have to do. We have a structured timetable and a routine which is good to keep us organised.

It is really easy to drive from my home and there's a big car park so I never struggle for parking.
