I find the location, community and campus feel very peaceful and relaxing, and the education provided is good quality and varied. There could be more support for students who struggle to fit in with the student body, e.g., more help and encouragement to join societies or opportunities to socialise with peers.
It’s a great place to study since it offers a lot of study areas, alongside a wide range of modules that are all interesting. However, it could improve on the well-being side and have more trained professionals available to talk to
Campus amazing and plenty to do - local town has all you need. Harder to get to London than expected but still very viable most of time and local buses and trains great!
i would love some lockers to place my labcoat during practicals. the walking paths arent very accessible around campus
The campus is beautiful and the area is pleasant, plenty of regular events of a variety of types. Regular clubbing events but also appreciated give it a go events to try new things, excellent sports and gym facilities. Unfortunately most things on campus that aren't free are grossly overpriced.
Facilities and events are really good and the ability to help students and security is good It can be improved by courses structure and too many hills
Best part: Facilities are nice Worst part: structure of my course
Dead uni.
Some lectures are great, the campus is lovely. The uni as a whole doesn’t really care about sexual assault and loves to brush things under the carpet.
It’s a nice lifestyle for campus orientated studys. As a music student it lacks resources but I guess it’s inevitable with a uni that offers many subjects. Student union supports quite a lot of events for different lifestyles like fruit market and su nights which is good. Egham is quite nice and safe , with more restaurants opening it’s becoming a better place.
The environment and student life makes the university experience fun and entertaining
I think maybe more improved facilities, like more modern vibe
Overall good uni just odd location
The best aspects of studying at Royal Holloway is first and foremost due to its beautiful appearance and buildings which create an atmosphere for bonding with friends, studying and learning from lecturers and most of all, to enjoy the view from wherever I am located. A possible idea for improvement would be that measures should be taken regarding quiet study spaces, as at times, the presence of rowdy students disrupt the peace and quiet within the study space.
comfortable atmosphere su could be improved by monitoring society staff
The breeze.
Lovely staff and good student experience; generally needs diversification of staff, training and modules so that they are not so Euro-centric
3.9
Most of the lecturers are great and very talented. But I would say the first year is very intense in terms of pace and the amount of content for each lecture so a little overwhelming. There’s a large amount of neuroscience and stats. Feedback can be a bit vague. There are societies and sport clubs. I tried a few societies but found them cliquey but others like them. Can’t comment on SUbas I’m a commuter and never been. The location of the uni is pretty isolated and boring. I’m a commuter but would feel bored living in Egham. It just feels like a village and is a 2 mile round walk. The uni is next to an A road and the walk up the hill is dodgy (narrow path). The people here tend to be on the posh side. I do think the campus and library is pretty, there’s a good library and teaching quality is good.
Best- interesting content and lecturers. Worst- the work load.
