Best: the societies and clubs,the viev of the town, vegan food Could be better: accommodation buildings could be better, like opening the window more or removing the carpeted flooring lol

I want more collaboration between university and bus companies. For example, it would be better if we could have bus cards again so that students can save energy and money.

Pros: Good value accommodation (choose Fferm Penglais) Relatively safe town - watch out for bad driving Plenty of shops and cafes in town Beautiful surrounding countryside and beach Cons: University campus is soulless at first encounter and doesn’t get much better Lectures are rushed through so you may as well just stay home and watch the lecture recordings at your own speed, to be able to learn and create decent notes Lectures are only 45 minutes and the lecturers sometimes struggle to use the software, which can often lose 10 minutes of lecture time Lack of engagement from the lecturer with students in the lectures, you just sit and listen to somebody read through a PowerPoint presentation, with no opportunity for questions and feedback Foundation year is advertised for those who lack the necessary qualifications for the degree schemes, however they expect you to understand A-level content in your first week Limited support from university for students who are doing a foundation year to help them get back into education No support for mature students Limited support for mental health: if you have any mental health problems please contact your GP and apply for the government’s Disabled Students Allowance way in advance of starting university, otherwise the university won’t acknowledge your mental health problems Lack of on-site food and drink options for vegans and those with food intolerances and allergies Very overpriced on-site food and drink, 50p surcharge for vegan milk in hot drinks is ludicrous Lack of care for the environment: no effort to promote healthy eating and the reduction of plastic waste Accommodation blocks close to uni are low quality. Good quality Fferm Penglais is a trek away from the uni Accommodation is soulless and you will feel incredibly isolated, even if you love peace and quiet A predatory male flat resident was reported to the Accommodation Office, and they could not take any action unless they had CCTV footage of an incident - you have to wait until someone gets assaulted on CCTV before they will do anything Despite the requirements listed online, Accommodation do not check visitors coming to accommodation or ask to see Covid test result or Covid pass You are completely isolated from the rest of society once you are in Aberystwyth, the busy road out takes you into the middle of nowhere and lifeless Welsh towns The hill from town back up to the university campus and accommodation is a killer, even for those who are fit and healthy. (If you are shopping on a weekly basis get the bus to Morrisons or do two trips walking to the big Tesco) CK’s food store by the university and the shops on campus are lacking in decent options and are overpriced, stick with the main supermarkets in town if you can Suggestions: Try and visit the university in person before applying Give full consideration to your type of accommodation (note: studio flats are very hard to acquire - many existing students retain the flats and you will need a good case to justify having one allocated to you) Consider the logistics of road and rail transport for getting back home
