The people I’ve met through my job at the Student’s Union
The vibrant campus & inclusive feeling
I don’t really have any
Student interactions and learning opportunities. The administration lacks.
The best is the freedom and the facilities that the uni offer us but the worst part is the actual subject where most of time you need to find the work and how to do it yourself
the environment and student life is really engaging. Would definitely recommend the commute and the location of the university is a bit odd
Everyone here is so friendly, you can make so many friends here. There is a lot of food choice on campus and a couple minutes away from campus. Thursday markets are always a bonus, different variety of food sold then. Lots of study spots if you want to do it as a group or on your own. There is always some sort of event happening everyday on campus and there is a lot of sports plus societies you can take part in.
More activities aimed in daytime
Best thing would be the community on campus created by the SU and variety of things to do around campus, worst would be issues with accommodation such as lack of hot water and wifi
They offer really good resources that proved useful time and time again. I would improve the prices of certain aspects of the university
Best experience would probably be the su and the events they have on and something that could be improved maybe more societies
I love the nature, and the variety of opportunities the SU offers, even to more introverted students. The lectures are dedicated and generally there are opportunities available for us, such as seminars, language courses etc.
Good facilities and staff support, sometimes lessons are hard to find and not always informative
best aspects is that everyone feels like a family when studying only improvement is free travel to and from campus
Best would be the nightlife and socialising Worst would probably be the timetable and how 9ams are always after the best night out of your life
So many good study spaces!! Very comfortable, campus is beautiful. Away from majority of other people. Help from teachers is good!! Maybe more effective ways to get students to successfully interact in class

Obviously our campus being shut down and us moving across to Colchester was not good. And then only starting to build the studios in Easter that they knew in November we would need. We still don’t have all the studios, we’ve been promised more in maybe January. The East 15 feel is great though, most courses really turn out to support each other in showings and I’m hoping this campus move will just bring us closer together
It’s a great place to study as facilities are very good and faculty are amazing, everyone is lovely and so helpful. Resources are easily accessible.
The university have been welcoming and very supporting of my neurodiverse needs. The Sports Performance team are excellent with ongoing practical support in addition to the scholarship offered. I would not hesitate to recommend this university to any student with additional needs, nothing has been too much trouble.


Very supportive staff and good facilities
Very satisfied
