The best is the student life
Best: night life, friends, location Worst: no support Improve : no more 9ams
Can be abit overwhelming. Defo an experience to have
some lecture halls need windows coz its a bit depressing :(
ASSL library 24 hours
Good flat mates
Best would be how accessible everything is and the support we get. It would be helpful if more lecture theatres had plugs in them to charge devices!!
The campus is all really close with good facilities I choose to be in the Student Union almost every day because it’s a great place to eat, study and also party. The library in the main building is where I spent most of my time because it is so peaceful and beautiful to look at. There are constantly opportunities to express your opinions about how the university could improve. Student Life always have opportunities or events on that are clearly advertised. My societies are the most fun i’ve ever had. Overall Cardiff is the best choice I could’ve made (especially as I applied and got into 2 other unis for 2 completely different courses over my gap year aside from Cardiff)
the building is a bit old compared to the others but good course and i like the events in the student union
Great student support and a good variety of facilities to accommodate to all needs.
I love everything
quite a few places to go in free time and plenty places to study
I like how close the university is to the city and all the support that the university offers, but I think it would be better if we had more study spaces
Best: SU cardiff itself Worst: Course support
It’s got a really nice community feel and student life is amazing.


I enjoy the social side of uni, however the work is boring and teaching is bad
The lectures are not very engaging
