Friendly, supportive atmosphere. Helpful lecturers and outgoing students. Could improve in communication through blackboard and emails, but overall - not too bad. Would recommend to mature students especially, as the classes flexibility is great.

University Campus Suffolk is a fantastic place to study. Great facilities and friendly helpful staff! I love it! Wouldn't want to be studying any where else for my degree.

Good university, good lecturers, nice location. The majority of students are 20+ and live off-campus like me so I feel very relaxed here. The lecturers are supportive and have our best interests at heart. Assignment feedback is clear and plentiful.

Year one - Oh if only I had stuck to my guns and not been so certain 'things will get better'. Rooms were changed on a weekly basis, 'lectures' (if you can call them that) were cancelled 5 mins before they were about to begin and staffing 'issues' meant we were without a teacher for weeks on end. Not only the university was proving to have its own problems but the students they let in (which seem to be anyone and anything) were beyond awful. Plagiarism which was conveniently either swept under the carpet or just not checked, mean students 'passed' their year 1 even though the majority of assignments were copy and pasted from the internet. Year 2 - similar thing, staffing issues mean a serious lack of teaching, the teachers that were employed meant I often left feeling uninspired and depressed at the prospect I was paying nearly £4000 a year for this standard of teaching. Year 3 - a serious lack of guidance from a dissertation supervisor and the poorly managed group of people left me upset before during and after every day spent there. After uncovering a 'lecturer' was writing assignments for a pupil (of which there was a very questionable relationship) it was reported and we were promised we would hear of updates on the matter after investigation. Yet again, this was swept under the carpet and we never heard anymore, these students were allowed to graduate after not completing assignments, not doing presentations and not completing group work. This left a bitter taste in the mouth of every person in my year and with a feeling on graduation day that non of our degrees meant anything. Am I happy to have a degree? Yes. Am I utterly ashamed of the institution named on my certificate? Yes. I urge anyone considering this university to stay well clear.
