Great location, pretty campus. The people are generally nice and it is not crowded. It feels safe in Guildford. They have put in new rest and social spaces which has helped reduce the amount of people in the library. Sometimes lecture rooms can be too hot/stuffy. There are a lack of activities to do outside of uni, the town could do with more development.
My supervisor is very interactive and lots of people are around for support. People around the office are friendly. Hybrid working is in place and flexible. The facilities could be better for PhD students. More social activities could be organised.

Love my course but could be more facilities
I have to work to afford my rent and groceries. There are also major issues for women's safety, needs more street lights.
So expensive! Bring USL back!

I really enjoy my course and the opportunities I have been exposed to, including studying abroad and a work placement which I will start this summer. I am thankful for all the support available, from various teams throughout the university such as the welfare teams, students union, careers team as well as support from my lecturers etc. I also like all the study spaces available on campus, the accommodation available, the location in Guildford and connections to London and the campus look and feel, especially the lake. The only thing that could be improved is the nightlife in Guildford town centre but the students union do a great job at hosting weekly events at Rubix which are always usually fun.
The best aspects are the opportunities on offer, as I studied abroad for the first semester of my 2nd year and I had an amazing time. The support from my lecturers for teaching, applying to placements and helping with assignments and any queries are great too. Another positive aspect is that all my course hours are in person which is definitely better than my first year where the year started in person then because of COVID, classes went online. The worse aspect I would say are the course hours as I have around 8 hrs a week and this may be due to the nature of my course which is fine but I do feel like with the tuition fee amount that we pay, more hours would be good.

Though some buildings are definitely due a renovation, the green areas around campus are absolutely beautiful, especially in the summer. The university is constantly after ways to improve student life so are always keen to act on student feedback. There's always a new space being renovated for the students- most recently this was ' Spark ', a new study space for students. There's plenty of student support, however it can be difficult getting hold of these services. Departments and such can take an awful long time to respond, with no indication of hope long this waiting period may be.
The course is undoubtedly the most profound in the industry. The facilities are more impressive than some studios and there's a magnitude of ways to get involved in extra curriculars which will boost your career prospects. The course is extremely demanding, with regular coursework deadlines and plenty of contact hours, however it fully prepares you for a career in the audio industry.
