The course is okay but the accommodation and support for students isn’t as good as I would expect it to be.
I love the location of the university, it is close to many areas around Northampton which makes it very convenient to come down to campus, I also love the diversity in the university. However I do be the university does need to implement more financial support for its students and to publicly announce these opportunities.
Worst experience was being locked out and security taking too long to come, best experience is meeting my friends
It’s an excellent learning institution with splendid sports facilities, the fact that it’s only a young university means that it isn’t ranked particularly highly.
I like the student services and welfare programs and also the wide range of opportunities for the international students
Modern and loads of help one to ones
Overall, the University of Northampton is a really nice place to study as the campus is modern and centered around how students want to learn and study. The main thing that does need improving though is that halls in particular can be quite expensive (mainly on campus).
It has great resources but staff can sometimes be very unusefull.
It's a great place to study, the campus is up-to-date and designed around seminar learning. I've found that the SU is hard to keep up with, as they update on Instagram and I'm not always on the app.

Very nice campus, nice staff. Bad parking, not enough day events for the students.
I love Northampton! Tutors and students here are very friendly. I've met different people from different country! Studying in the UK is an eye opening experience and allows me to broaden my network.
The best experience is the modern campus and how nice it feels to walk around and homely. The work experience for me is living in halls, they’re very loud and I don’t seem to get any break or support.
I think the university is great but located in a boring town.
People are very friendly and i’ve met amazing people

When you’re from Northampton you don’t quite get the uni experience
The university is very modern and welcoming.


The student support is Wonderful. Just had an issue with one of my module registration
The only problem is that some lectures can be quite lengthy
