Beautiful campus, great societies and an amazing beach!
18-24 years
Some of the inside of the buildings need refurbished
Teaching standards are high, and there is a lot opportunities to new people in the university. Overall, it was a great experience.
Good facilities like library. Like the way they've set out the course and staff are friendly.
The area is lovely and Aberdeen is a great, diverse city. The campus of Aberdeen is very beautiful and easily accessible via multiple bus routes. The only real gripe I have with the campus (and city in general) is how much cobbled roads there are everywhere- not very accessable for those with walkers, wheelchairs etc.
I think it’s a great way to meet people (students and lecturers) from all over the world. The campus is beautiful and historic (although parts do need updating). I feel that some lecturers I can struggle to understand what they are saying sometimes, and the majority of lecturers just read off the slides that were most likely made years ago. (Not all lecturers, tho) I also did not like having to choose an extra subject as credits. There was an email before I joined stating it, but it made it sound like it was optional and not mandatory. It immediately put me off wanting to study there.
Very accessible and accommodating to the diverse study body. Campus has a lovely autumnal feel to it and has plenty of coffee shops for study breaks. Careers services are very helpful and welcoming. The uni is quite digital now so most things you'll find online and it's pretty easy to navigate. Overall very happy with my experience.
Aberdeen is a welcoming university and the medical school in particular give me access to the support I need. It is a great course and the facilities and clinical experience is excellent!
It is lovely to be so close to the beach, countryside and the city centre. There are so many societies that you could join to meet people. The University has two libraries and a lovely campus.
Good.

Good
It's great and lovelz just need more love


There is a lot to do outside of classes, and the student facilities are great. The university campus is beautiful, and the location is outstanding. It could be improved by fixing the lifts in the library as they are often broken.
great staff to teach the courses, however content could be more engaging as assessments are not always dependent on lecture content
great social life, but there were issues with the flat's appliances, which reduced its value for money in my opinion
