It is well designed and the course is good. Overall i feel safe at University.
I was so pleased I was offered a place at my first choice, the University of Staffordshire. And I am still so happy with my decision to enroll. It's a great university with amazing tutors who are so supportive amd kind. I have settled very well and am enjoying my experience so far, and I'm confident that it will continue.

Good facilities, good location, good support from student life and student union. Good library facilities, amazing inclusion support and adequate student support.
I think it's great that they constantly have events on that you can go to and they have a really good team that helps people with learning difficulties.
Feels super welcoming, all my lecturers are friendly and approachable. They put lots of things in place such as ‘coffee chats’ with lecturers or mentors to ensure you are on track and get any support you need.
The facilities and people really make Staffs what it is. The one of the most inclusive and respectful environments to study. The campus is the heart of student life, whilst stoke is what it is, as a student you can avoid it and just be you in the community.
the best things about this course is i’m always challenging myself and i have met some amazing friends for life as for improvements, i think the tutors could be a bit more organised
Staff are really knowledgeable and approachable Food is quite expensive considering we are students on a tight budget
Excellent and brilliant lecturer. Detail of course and good modules support Support all the way to end of course. Checking on student Guide to the students all though your course Good location of college College always clean Good food in cafe
Lectures are really supportive and insightful
The buildings are nice. So are the staff
Plenty of support from staff and student services, could use an improvement from the union
I am a mature student and after taking the plunge and braving the nerves of my first visit to campus it has all been very comfortable and I can say that I have never felt like I'm viewed as different and have been treated very well by students and lecturers.
Great access to resources. City isn't great

Very supportive and understanding and close to home :)
Its a great campus, with fantastic facilities. Lectures are approachable and easy to speak too.
The University of Staffordshire is a brilliant place to study. The lecturers are punctual, professional and very supportive! I love going to the Catalyst cafe for lunch and studying at campus. There aren’t many improvements that the university needs but it would be nice if we could receive our assessment guidance a little earlier on blackboard so we could start our essays faster. Other than that I cannot think about a single thing I would change.
Everyone is helpful and everything is organised.
Because the Stafford campus is small the teaching feels personal, everyone on the campus is studying some form of nursing or medicine. The student support is great and the library help is second to none. It could be improved by having some more food options on campus but this doesn’t effect me as I bring my own or subway KFC and costa is around the corner.


I think the location of the university is bad and I understand this is not the fault of the university. It is my local uni but the location in the city has got a High crime rate and as a student who has lived just outside of campus it was extremely scary! The facilities are a little outdated but the staff are amazing and you couldn't get more experienced and down-to-earth staff anywhere else. I think the staff make up for the outdated classrooms. I think there should also be more affordable places to get hot food, the catalyst I find is too expensive and squeeze box and Ember to be limited. The gym needs upgraded equipment to be charging the price it does! So I switched from that to swimming at Fenton manor which is right by the uni. The students can be cliquey and the uni nights out are very good!.
The staff are amazing, I feel lucky to be taught by them and will miss them the most when I graduate.
