Law - LLB (Hons)

University rating (3)

The Law school is falling apart, they block any and all student appeals, the consistent change course work dates. Module conveyors are always changing so there is no consistency. Academic tutors change about every 6 months for most students.

Zoology with Professional Experience

University rating (5)

Most of the lecturers are lovely and really helpful. There’s been lots of student events to keep it a fun and exciting time and take the pressure off studying. The library is great but can be difficult to find somewhere to study when it’s busy
