Uni has great facilities, library, resources etc. Sports is really good, just a shame its so far away in Gloucester. Take a long time by bus, and about 25-30mins by car.

Help desk is always great and helpful and if they can't help they put you in touch with the right people :)

Compared to other university where their SUs are nightclubs, ours is more of a sociable place to go (park campus) in between lectures, rather than a night time venue. It's still pleasant though.

Great night life. Not many clubs, but your guaranteed a good night and to know people out. Cheltenham is a small world! There are some gorgeous bars and restaurants, if not a little pricey, but totally worth it for a great cocktail! The shopping is good, shops range from cheap high street to high end :)

There is a club for everything and anything. If that's your thing, there's loads to get stuck in to.

My course is great, really interesting, and my lecturers are lovely. The majority are easily contactable and happy to help.

Got a placement which was advertised by the university, and have been offered a graduate role at the company.

Hall of residence (Park campus) were lovely and clean. The rooms are small (top floor) smaller than lower floors but it still had everything i needed! Lovely to be so near university. Second year house was easy enough to find and to get. My landlord turned out to be not good, and i'd recommend future students don't use him (Chris Honor, Honor Properties). Most students end up living in St Pauls, which is good as all the students are there, and its close to town, and a short drive to Uni, but its not the safest areas (2 friends houses got burgled)

Uni facilities are great. They have laptops in each building that can be borrowed for a day which is useful to us. Also the library rooms are useful to us as we are able to book them for two hours to do our work. Also the rooms are quite with no noise which is good for us as we can concentrate.

With the help of the LDU, students are able to progress better with their work. LDU help us with our work and they tell us what we need to improve on to make our work better which allows us to get a better grade.

The student union are amazing.

City life is fab.

I am currently the vice president of the Hindu Society at MDX and it is great to meet new people each day. Also events held by the SU and other societies is amazing and enjoyable.

My course is great and I have all the resources I need and also if I need help, I am able to approach my lecturers and ask them for help. However my only issue is with MGT3800 where we are given no lectures anymore or seminars. We are required to learn independantly and tests given to us are 60 questions in 60 minutes. This limits us to one minute a question which is extremly difficult as it takes over a minute to read and understand the question.

Via my course, I have managed to find out what sort of jobs I would like to apply for. Learning project management, strategic environment anaylis and marketing has made me realise that I would like a job in any of these sectors.

I remember in first year of univeristy when I had applied to live at halls, I was turned down because I lived to local to MDX to move out.

Large number of computers, printers etc on all campuses. Sports facilities are good. Able to rent camera, laptops etc.

Most of the time replies to any querie are answered very quickly if by email. A student support team for almost anything is available, accomodation, health etc.

Will help you with anything, a students union on every campus. The SU bars are always holding events and encouraging students to come down.

Cheltenham is a lovely town, loads of shops, coffee spots, parks for the summer etc. It has a lot of job opportunities too. Somewhere that your mum would love to visit. Gloucester lacks things to do to call itself a city, it's not as pretty as cheltenham and you probably would rather get the bus (40 mins) to cheltenham to go out that stay in Gloucester (trust me).

The spirit among sports teams is amazing, every Wednesday teams compete against other universities, some home some away. Teams supporting each other all day. In the evening teams celebrate their win or drown their sorrows with a social and a night out. Wednesday nights are huge in cheltenham and everyone dresses up and has a great time. Some societies you may want are not offered, but it is easy enough to set up your own, and as said the SU will help with all of this.

Good range of courses. I found a few lecturers on Leisure courses tended to treat students as though they were still at school. Lecturers teaching businesses courses do this a lot less and (the majority, but not all) are very keen to help. The tutor system is helpful for new students who want guidance or any questions answered.

Schemes in place such as the Degreeplus award encourage students to take on a part time job or internship alongside their course. The Degreeplus staff assist students in finding these jobs. The university jobshop is always updated on new part time jobs in the area that would fit around your course. Emails are sometimes sent to students about job prospects too.

The accommodation that I have seen is of good standard, some is a little overpriced for what you receive. Most accommadation is within walking distance of the campuses.

great facilities and lots going on

love the course and 99% of lecturers

lots of help

Academically excellent, large library, private study rooms, computer labs and a lovely lecture theatre.

So helpful! There are so many people to help you with your enquiry what ever it might be. I always start with the Helpzone and if they can't answers question they set you up with who can. They are brilliant and were my lifeline when I started uni mid way through the year after everyone else was already settled in.

Busy, vibrant with lots of societies on offer.

Cheltenham is a very picturesque regency town. There are a few clubs but I think more in Gloucester which is where the other campus is.

Lots to choose from.

Some excellent and inspiring lecturers.

There is a lot of emphasis on what you do alongside your degree. Departments such as DegreePlus, Placements, Student Achievement, Study Skills all work hard to encourage you to get more from your time at uni in order to give you the edge over other candidates at job interviews.

I don't use university accommodation.

Quite dated these days and hard to find a free computer at peak times.

Good support offered.

Good union, active and offer lots.

Good night life in town.

Usual societies, never wanted to join any though.

Poor. Foreign teachers are clueless.

Helpful in this area but still not a well known uni.

Decent accommodation around Cheltenham.

Everything breaks

The services are plenty however the helpfulness is not

decent enough

Preston sucks! It's tired and run down.

There's too many to count

No complaints

decent enough

All a bit naff

Growing up in Cornwall, I didn't want to move to a big city such as Manchester or London. So Cheltenham and Gloucester were the perfect places for me to experience university life - with plenty of festivals, events and social opportunities to get involved in.

My lecturers were always on hand, often outside of contact lecture time to advice, guide and feedback to me on important pieces of work, such as my final year dissertation.

My business placement during my third year of study gave me responsibilities that boosted my work experience, confidence and employability skills, leading to employment immediately after I graduated.
