Except from the location which is close to the campus I'm studying at there's literally nothing good about this place. Furnitures, doors and anything else constantly stops working and they take ages for that. Laundry machines never working and they literally eat students money. If you have any complaints to do you go through several procedures and nobody actually cares to solve the problem. I literally pay 648£ for this place, these people are getting paid and still not doing their jobs . Is literally a very very bad experience for me. read more

I had taken BA sociology , Lecturers were not supportive and had taken 2-3 weeks to respond to emails , work was not marked on time , lectures had no structure and was not organised properly when doing research projects . the campus itself is lovely and the facilities themselves are great but the majority of those within the sociology department do not meet students needs which brought my grades down massively because of lack of communication and lack of support with assignments read more

The campus is styled more like a collage than a real university, with limited seating and plugs available for lecture rooms which are poorly designed for their intended purpose. The rooms, such as SC-161, are far too long, meaning that anybody at the wrong end of the classroom cannot hear or see anything being taught. There is not enough parking either, with the university resorting to making an overflow on the grass verges by the main entrance. Despite clearly not being capable of handling the number of students they have, the university also wants to return to in-person lessons, seemingly ignoring the fact that public transport and accommodation are tough to come across outside of the town itself. The SU effectively does not exist on Oxstalls campus; there is nothing on offer unless you're into sports. Every other group is dead or dying, and despite messaging the outdoorsy societies, they didn't even reply, so why would I want to join them? read more

Lecturers are snide and unhelpful. Had a very bad period mentally, but all the lecturer could comment on was my lateness. The lecturer thought I was on my phone and called me out in front of everyone, instead of dealing with it maturely and talking to me about it after lectures. I would expect this in secondary but not at university. Lessons are unengaging and unnecessary, with everything that I have been taught I have learned already within clinical practice. read more

The University of Gloucestershire is a great institution that offers a welcoming and supportive learning environment. I was impressed with the quality of teaching, the variety of courses on offer, and the range of resources available to students. One thing that stood out to me was the university's focus on practical learning. Many courses incorporate hands-on experience and real-world projects, which is a great way to prepare students for their future careers. The university also has strong links with local businesses and organizations, which provides students with valuable networking opportunities and career prospects. The campus itself is modern and well-maintained, with plenty of green spaces and modern facilities. The university has invested heavily in state-of-the-art technology and equipment, which is evident in the modern classrooms, libraries, and labs. The campus also has a great range of social spaces, including a student union building, cafes, and sports facilities. read more

The university of Gloucestershire in Cheltenham is a great uni to go to after A-Levels and college. The facilities are very accessible to use at night and in the day. The lecturers are very friendly on my course and extremely helpful when it comes to help or questions about the work that we have to complete. My campus, Park Campus, is very pretty and spacious. It is a very chilled environment in and around the university and having the library 24/7 is extremely helpful, though sometimes certain parts are difficult and won't be able to be completed when theirs staff in the library. But all in all I would recommend it as a first time Uni or for masters as the environment is calming and productive. read more

University of Gloucestershire offers many student job roles in the university along with promoting jobs that would fit a student schedule for those who needs help finding one. They have a good program that helps look for opportunities for after uni and job help. They have a range of societies, clubs and activities that allow you to socialise, meet new people. Especially in first year. However, in an art course, I find the facilities such as needed resources are not there. We don't even have a lecture room and sometimes spend the first 10-15 mins searching for one. Although they promote jobs etc, they don't take in consideration that people may need to work to afford rent and food and so constantly brings it up of marks them down for it but then also wants them to attend expenses trips along with extra curriculum activities like viewing and visiting art facilities read more
