Great support if you want it and nice facilities, there is always something to do. Price is higher than I would like it to be.
The structure could be more defined
Lots of study spaces around campus. Nice accommodations.
I like uea atmosphere!
I think the teaching for some modules is very good.
Worst aspects of uni experience was 2nd year housemates. I felt rushed to find a 2nd year house and made big mistakes. 2nd year was miserable for me and I didn’t know I could access resources for help. Best aspects is when I did find the resources they did an amazing job to help me out.
Good
The best experiences so far have been meeting new people and moving into a new place, the worst is financial stability and the stress of work in uni.
Best experience is the co-curricular. Worst experience is accommodation facilities
Very stressful - lots of info at once Love sports night and my course
It has a very friendly community and easy to access
Good inclusivity, overpriced stuff
Everything is very good
Very cool very nice please
The uni has many things to do and looks good in some parts however in other parts it looks like a sea of concrete which is not my style. I have plenty of free time however sometimes I will have a large gap in my day which I have to fill and often my friends timetable is not aligned with my friends which is annoying especially since I do not live on campus. Lastly I have sone lectures at 9 which is frustrating since I have to commute in early in rush hours. However all these problems are quite pretty and the only large concern I have about uni is the loan and the likelyhood of my degree being worth it in terms of finding a well paid and highly personally rewarding job.
More information could be provided to students, better availability about their course, marking processes, etc
I love the people and how welcoming everyone is


Lectures are very interesting, I enjoy the variety of topics and lecturers on the history course. Earlham park is beautiful and a great walk to pass. It’s so hard as a commuting student to make friends and getting to the university is an absolute nightmare, the parking on campus is absolutely ridiculously expensive, the free parking and ride service takes absolutely forever and I’m always late, I have to get up at 5:50 to make a 9am lecture when I live a 20 minute drive away, if I could afford the parking on campus I would do it as I would be on time and not stress. It is £13.50 for a time slot of 8:50-11
It’s got a huge wealth of knowledge and a large time scale, there is a different lecture every time you step in the lecture theatre. It’s fantastic. The lecturers are great and enthusiastic. We have 9 hours of lectures and 3 hours of seminar. We also have reading and primary source work available online which is connected. I hate the early morning lectures
