Lovely university all staff and students know each other. You are more than a number. Small class sizes so teaching is focused and attentive also great support, especially good for mature students.
Very unhelpful regardless of your circumstances!
Better student parking needs to be put in place Update some of the buildings / classrooms
Teachers show a real interest in the topics they are teaching creating and better sense of involvement when studying. All of the equipment is available and demonstrated to us for maximum learning and development. Timetables are clear and full of information needed to progress throughout the semester. Facilities such as the library, photography studio and many more are easy to access and helpful resources for my studies.
The university has a lack of resources, a lack of adequate lecturers that are experts in their specified area and a total lack of support for students and student welfare. The turnover of staff severely disrupts students progress; with not knowing who to contact or enduring 5 weeks of no lectures. This university clearly has an issue with head of areas and higher management that create untenable positions for staff members. Students who are paying £9k a year to endure a degree. I can safely say (and this is my opinion) that I will never be a student at the university of Bolton again and if I could go back in time I would do my utmost to ensure I attended a well respected university.
Everyone is very approachable and friendly
The uni is nice and the engineering side of things isn't out in the sticks like it sometimes is in other unis. Close ish to town centres, and close to some decent food places. Located in a nice town as well.

It’s close to where I live
Thank you
My best experience is the cultural diversity. I’m mixed race so it’s good to be surrounded by people who accept me. The worst part is I live far away so it’s difficult to get into uni some times but I do my best.

There is a lot of support for the students which makes it a great place to study, however it could have more social aspects.

I’m paying a significant amount of money that is going to burden me for the rest of my adult life, the quality of education I’m receiving is not worth the money at all.
Course content is good for people that are interested in it, however the content is the same whether your course is cognitive neuroscience, or counselling. This means that if you care about personality, it’s perfect, though unfortunately that is not what I’m paying 50 grand for.
