Roehampton has a wonderful campus with 2 lakes and a gorgeous 4 story library. However the facilities such as the diner and canteen are very expensive for university students. Additionally, this academic year there has been less support for students and a lack of lessons due to all lecturers going on strike about once a month.
Satisfied with University of Roehampton
The people I've met are amazing. There are loads of really great societies to go to. The university looks so good, there is so much green everywhere. Support is not always the best and it can take a long time for anyone to help you. The accommodation is tiny. Although some teachers are amazing, others just aren't as supportive and interactive with the class. There are some paths through the forest that are hard to travel on for disabled students and there are not enough lights so traveling at night is hard.
Think about Student future. Especially in time of issuing CAS letter Really very disappointed a lot of students due to late response and late issue of CAS letter.

The student support is absolutely amazing, every member of staff is so helpful and they always have such a friendly attitude. They treat you with respect and take the time to support your work or your well being to the best of their abilities. The campus is beautiful and can be a lovely place to take a break and have a walk, great for reducing stress. Thanks to the staff at UoR I have managed to get fully back on track with my work when I had to miss a full term of lessons, however they were so helpful and encouraging to the point where I now feel confident that I will pass my studies.
There is a good feel at the campus, everyone is friendly and there is good student support. There is a lot of work and some lecturers ramble quite a lot unnecessarily
Beautiful campus which makes for a great study environment and walks. Lots of stats, writing and wellbeing support. Friendly staff and research heavy department

I admire the work that my lecturer’s put in and the way they want us to achieve our degree
i feel like the university doesn’t support you as much as they should and as much as other universities. I don’t always feel safe at this uni, only because there’s a lot happening here
Not feeling as supported as I should. Not feeling safe on campus.
Great library
The variety of societies offered is good, though sometimes difficult to engage in as a commuting student. The university is rarely prepared to support students as issues arise, especially financially. It is a struggle to be heard in a way that matters, and is painfully clear how inadequate the staffing is. Resources are not made apparent to students, and I've personally had to search for even the most basic ones.
Nice school, but quite isolated from the rest of London
Best; Staff, the students, all the different events Worst; A few problems with my uni accommodation in the beginning
Great
It's in a very nice location, though if you don't live on campus it's quite a hassle to reach it. The facilities are very modern and well kept, and the entire campus is a joy to explore. However, I have felt that the higher levels of the university staff (not the lecturers, who are lovely) don't communicate effectively with the rest of the university. There have been a few examples of this, such as sudden budget cuts or, most distressingly, when a whole accommodation block was shut down. However, it's still a great place to study, with a huge variety of courses, people and experiences. I definitely recommend visiting the uni and appreciating the locale. With the amount of options available, Roehampton Uni covers most kinds of education you could be interested in. Also, if you can, try and get accommodation at Elm Shaw house. The cheapest option (Bede) is awful, if you can afford better go for it.
4.3
The serene environment is well suited for academic learning. Also the academic structures in place and lecturers are top notch . I am enjoying the lectures and learning new things in the university.
I am enjoying the combination of the online and classroom lectures . There is no bad experience so far about the method of delivery course .
