Sort:Latest reviewsTeaching staff are approachable and mostly kind but can be a little dismissive with questions that may seem ‘easy-to-find-answers’ about. Campus has a big library with lots of availability and great for learning during off peak hours but can be very challenging during events/exams. Student service is also very reliable but often show you how to get help, but not necessarily a direct route (some cases). No ‘scouting’ of people who may be interested in sports without it feeling difficult on students. Clubs are available but no real friendly games/matches with people of all varying skill (Ziggurat is good but only 1 sport a week - if someone enjoyed football, they’d only be involved maybe once for that year). Course content can be extremely difficult to manage. Can always be told how to manage by teaching staff but never get told how to manage time. Lectures can be 2 hours (back-back) and that can be emotionally and mentally exhausting (mostly dealt with by the university but some courses still have 2 hour blocks)
There is great support for students and a lovely campus
The lecturers are super knowledgeable and the facilities are brilliant.
Good
Best - the course structure and methods of learning - Accommodations - Friendliness - picturesque local area - friendly locals Worst - cut off location - not great for student life
There is lots of building work going on, which is a bit annoying. There is also not a big shop close by, it's about a 25 minute walk, through some estates. I do not feel comfortable walking there by myself in the evening.
It looks a bit like a car park and buses are expensive
Very inclusive and support is always offered, could be improved with less online lectures
Facilities are great and campus is very student friendly, I think the websites and logins could be easier to navigate, but overall the environment is good
The campus is very good. It is a great place to study. Overall very positive. My only slight complaint was that student support is perhaps a little under staffed. (Although the staff are helpful themselves).
Banging library wish the registration team would reply to emails a little bit quicker but there’s not much to be done about that during the busy period at the beginning of the year.
The student support here is great and is encouraged by all staff and fellow students.
I love it here
The students support
Some parts of the campus are great but others a little outdated. Of course the ziggurat student halls have been abandoned and it’s kind of odd to me that they’re still there. Library is great but would enjoy more room for the ‘non-silent’ floors as there’s normally never anywhere to sit. Some of the bathrooms could use some improvement as well ie the library bathrooms- they’re too small. Lived in accommodation last year (Britten house) and really enjoyed my time there but for how much students are paying, the metal countertops are an awful look and kitchen storage was inconvenient. Besides that, love the UEA community and making lots of great memories here.
Best= social Worst = park and ride buses do not go late enough
Love it
