Really good. I made a lot of friends, I just need a job. I'd like to work in the campus but there are not too much vacancies. About the course, it is good structured
I have enjoyed every moment. I was worried about coming to university, but from the first day, I knew this was for me. My flat mates are wonderful, and very friendly. I have made many friends, which was the section I was most worried about. The university and town are so pretty.
Really good. I've really enjoyed my self. Had fun makimg new friends, joining societies. Moving out and learning more about myself and actually enjoying learning
Absolutely life changing. Wouldn't change a thing. It's a place you will never forget. Most of us will be drawn to Aberystwyth for life! Sea, sun and fun all year round.
Its very good
I love everything till now my friends club and city.My biochemistry course is very informative and i would recommend it to everyone seeking to learn life science
Overall ive had a great first 2 years at uni and looking forward to my last . I would recommend getting involved in a club or society as its a great way to make friends

University life has been awesome so far and i wouldn't change a thing about my life at Aberystwyth. I've had the best year so far and i look forward to enjoying the rest. Can't wait to continue with my course and planning for my future.

Good atmosphere and growth in academic and social areas.A good community is here at Aber, it always has something fir everyone inwhatever area that maybe. Cathsoc provides a great community here in Aber.
Womderful. I have leaent so much and have had an greatntime, and can,t think of any faults. The su is really improving, if i have any issues the sunand uninare quick to resolve them. There is nowhere else id rather be
I love the university life, thetownnis stunning amd the uni gives great support for all students in all areas. It fully promotes societies and clubs which means its easy to make friends and have a good social life alongside an academic life


Its been great but getting a group of friends is proving difficult so far. But the content has been enjoyable. I have experienced many things hat i wouldn't have experienced at home... some good and some bad but all experiences.
Its very close to amenities which is helpful as you aren't carrying shopping for ages. Its further from the uni than I'd like but there are plenty of buses which I utilise to get around this
There seemed to be more sports based societies than anything else which suits me but might not suit others. But all societies seem to do the same thing which is meeting up to drink, theres not much individuality between the societies in respect to socials.

You have to have a key fob to enter but anyone can buz anyone in without knowing who they are letting in so that isnt too good but i still feel safe. Location, its right on the seafront so its beautiful and its a 4 min walk from the 24hr Spar so thats really handy as its the only 24hr shop. Cost is very cheap for what it is (cheap for uni prices) but flats in town are far cheaper with bills included.
