The best bits are its location, student life, SU, and being in Wales but so connected. It is very cheap but the student living area is not very nice and the courses themselves could have more funding.
Love the city of cardiff and the people here
No worst experiences Only the best
Provides a variety of events to balance acedemica and improving lifestyle. To improve stop axing courses and jobs!!!
fun
I had a lovely time at Cardiff
Best - the social life and meeting new people and having so much freedom. Worst - how busy the library can get sometimes
Cardiff University is incredible
Best- The student union and the help everyone offers Worst-The wifi can sometimes drop off
All good
It’s great!
the psychology building is ugly
the building doesn’t look the nicest
It’s okay but I think law corse is oversubscribed
Cardiff is (usually) very communicative with students
university halls is poor, in terms of distance and lack of en-suites.


Lots of study spaces. Lots of support. The current cuts suck and are going to ruin it.
Fewer contact hours/lab experience in 2 and 3 year
