Not the university's fault that tuition is £9000 a year but they could at least make the course worth it. I have hardly any seminars and lectures, pretty much have to do the entire course by yourself since no one tells you s*** about assignment deadlines and all that jazz because 'it's all on Minerva' - Minerva being the archaic student portal that this university uses. Only at university because apparently I need a degree to function in society but my God, it's expensive, and there's little to no help from the university when it comes to mental health and financial issues - just automated e-mails telling you to get counselling and get a job, not helpful advice at all. read more
