I would give minus five stars to this University. I was warned about classism, professional neglect, and lack of support, but I didn't listen. How could this University be improved? A complete overhaul of its teaching method, autonomous learning is another phrase for professional neglect. I am going elsewhere for post-grad, and I wish I never came to this University. Edinburgh does not provide what it says it does. The city of Edinburgh is not that great (sorry to spoil the illusion), and come to think about it, if a University advertises the city as its main attraction, what does that say about the University? Stay well clear of this University.
For anyone wanting to study philosophy here, this University is analytically focused with little to no interest in Continental philosophy. The tutors range from good to useless. Seminars/Tutorials also range from decent to useless. Student engagement is often low, and if you enjoy a module, you're more likely to talk to the plants than a fellow student. Online learning was an unmitigated disaster, making student engagement decrease. Over-reliance on discussion boards, which are hardly/never used.

The campus is beautiful and there are so many activities and things to do. It can be improved with more student support.
The best parts are the in-person tutorials. The worst parts are the online lectures.
It's a great place and location, especially for the price.
