Fashion Design: New Practice with Foundation - BA (Hons)

University rating (4)
Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

I would say it’s okay a bit confused at times as I’m used to teachers telling me what I should be doing . And my personal organisation skills aren’t the best . Also I haven’t yet been able to make friends due to online lectures but have spoken to fellow class mates . Would say more help could be given on how to use blackboard and better description given to uni assignments as I’m not always clear on what I meant to do

Nursing (Adult) BN (Hons)

University rating (4)
Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

Hasn’t been the best year due to COVID-19 as classes had to be held online for safety measures and in line with government guidance. This made classes less engaging and unusual as we had never experienced this before. However, it would be unfair to comment on this due to the pandemic. Although, all staff and lecturers were very supporting and were always there for students when needed.

Course is great, university accommodation is horrible. I lived at paragon for a month before they told us it was a fire hazard and evacuated us even though they have know that it was a fire hazard for years, I was then moved to another accommodation where my flat mates smoked and did drugs in the kitchen and the smoke came into my room so I neither ate in the kitchen/ at all or slept without my window open (in winter- I was freezing). So I moved out into the student village that charge so much money that I can’t afford to live gear next year so I’ll have to move again soon.

Professional Acting - BA (Hons)

A great school. Could be slightly better organised. Not perfect, but everything is done with good intentions, to help you be prepared and the best you can be. I love DSL so much. Well worth the audition! UWL isn’t the best in terms of accommodation- my year in halls was horrendous - but I dealt with it because DSL made it worth it.

Law - LLB (Hons)

University rating (4)
Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

My overall experience was the lecturers are professional and helpful. Always happy to book a meeting and discuss anything that you need such as: assessment guidance or help trying to get your grades, career advice, scholarship references. The lectures are interesting and the teacher bring real life stories and cases into them so that we can see as student how it would apply or work in the real world. The seminars are interactive and students are always given the opportunity to ask questions and answer them.

Computer Science

My experience is great. I love it. I initially signed up for IT course. After first semester of programming module, my professor noticed my skills and pushed me to change course to Computer Science. Which I did. Tutors are very nice and knowledgable, they help you a lot. They support your career 100% and I definitely made the right choice.

Theatre Production (Design and Management) BA (Hons)

University rating (1)
Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

I wish I had never gone. I have zero career prospects, and am looking at starting work at Tesco full time. UWL bills itself as the 'career university' however I am in exactly the same position as I was three years ago only now I have about £40,000 worth of debt. LCM is only out to make money from students. I feel like I have learnt nothing of note in the last three years.

Generally happy, nothing particularly bad apart from sometimes awkward timetables and no room for change.
