It's really friendly and supportive with lots of society and enrichment opportunities
Societies
I've felt very supported andguided
Absolutely AMAZING 10/10 would recommend everyone to come here!
lovely area, however there is a lack of night life and the sexual health clinic is shut and there are no ways of getting free tests from the area.
It could be improved by having better student support and responding to students concerns better, especially with lectures
Ok
The campus is cosy a nice, supportive environment It is not very accessible a lot of the time.
Winchester is a beautiful city . The university itself is lovely but support is limited. I have tried getting mental health support but none of my emails have been responded to.
Finding friends- good
Due to the small campus is has a more community feel than that of other big unis
not a lot of parking, a lot of support, but not much for people who do not have formal diagnoses
Great liveable area, better club nights (understanding the target audience better)
Great atmosphere to study. Plenty of study spaces available even in the evenings and when it's closed. Staff are really nice and helpful. Preferably better food.
I feel that my educational facilities are very well prepped, however I could use additional support with mental health facilities.
All good
The university is gorgeous, especially the West Downs building where my modules are based. It’s cosy and makes me feel good to be studying here. The lecturers are all so interesting, engaging and lovely. I feel comfortable asking questions and I feel like I’m pushed to do my best. Student support here have been incredibly helpful too when I’ve had worries and concerns. All of these things have really just added up to a wonderful university experience so far! I’m not sure how I’d improve it, I think the university have really been doing their best to provide anything and everything the students might need, from socials to extra support and general comfort at uni. They have a multitude of extra resources to help with all aspects of my degree, the libraries are gorgeous and full of everything I might need and the general facilities are more than enough. Efficient, comfortable and aesthetic. I love this university, it feels homely and I’m glad I came here.
Campus all over the place. Course is interesting.
