The university is a beautiful campus with lots of places to study, have a bite or go for a walk. I have found the Wifi is not the best although the platforms they use are great to highlight assignments, readings, etc. I have not joined any societies however there is a ton to see. I have wants to go to GCU since I was a first year in college and Have enjoyed thus far. read more

Really great location - close links to transportation and shops. Helpful staff. The rooms themselves are pretty small but cover the basics for the most part. The heating is fantastic - I always feel warm and comfortable in my room. I also love the floor to ceiling windows that allow a lot of natural light to stream in. My only complaint is that some of the rooms don't include a kitchen table which is inconvenient. The bar table is far too small especially if you have a guest over for dinner. I usually have to eat at my study desk which isn't ideal. Overall, however, I'd say the accommodation is decent. read more
