So far uni life here has been wonderful. I love the different facilities that the campus buildings offer (the study areas, cafes, etc). The library is also wonderful and I appreciate the study rooms and other seating as well as the digital catalogue where I can easily find my textbooks. Borrowing a book is quite easy as well. The Union and the clubs that I explored have such helpful members. I like that they offer to assist you if you're new at something and they are patient with you. The lectures on campus have been interesting so far and I appreciate the lecturers' explanations of the different topics; it makes it easy to understand. Another thing that stood out to me was the Careers service, which was a new concept to me. I decided to check them out and the experience was great. I was assisted with applications and given insightful feedback which helped a lot. My overall experience here has been positive and I look forward to a wonderful year at the university. read more

The Marine Biology building could do with some upgrades, like a new boat. The clubs seem good but I didn't really engage with them, regrettably. read more

Great university with incredible support services and teaching. The SU is not as big of a part as in other unis but they are currently working to improve this. Brilliant sports facilities, 24hr library in term time, plenty of spaces to work in with varying environments for different study needs. Student accommodation close to campus and town and plenty of housing for students in both purpose built accommodation and student houses. Free university buses running around the city during term time. Overall a great university experience. read more
