I moved to Hartpury as an international student who was going to attend the football BTEC course, the football within the collage is atrocious nothing near to what was advertised, the sessions are overcrowded meaning 100 players plus with 5 staff members(none of them being proper coaches), and the sessions are repeated all year long, in addition to favouritism from the collage regarding players who they had chosen for the first team and not fairly integrated the rest of the players into the football system, meaning the 20 players within the first team get all provisions(physios ,gym etc) and the rest are left with nothing in an endless cycle, I decided to stop after the first year as I was progressively getting worse as a result of the sessions, to which most second years followed by then end of the year, in addition to facilities and services such as physio etc which had been promised being declined to myself when I needed it or wanted to use it the collage residential staff-(pt1) read more

Accommodation onsite is prison-like, depressing and expensive. The location in terms of being on site and close to lectures is the only benefit, if you are big on going out, the buses only run every hour and you can miss the last bus into town. On the weekends the buses also stop early and a taxi can cost £15-20 each way. If you have any maintenance issues expect a long wait to have it sorted out. The rooms are not the cleanest when you arrive and I had my sanitary bin full from the previous years when I arrived. If you are not staying in the plus blocks the kitchens are tiny and not really suitable for socialising for long periods. In my experience I have seen 1 or 2 parties in blocks which have both been shut down due to noise complaints, fire alarms going off etc. If you are reading this and want a social life stay off site at BLACKFRAIRS accommodation it is 10x better I spent 70% of my year there at my friends whilst paying for the Limbury halls which I did not use. read more

A wonderful community of people that you won't find on a bigger campus uni. That's where most of the charm wears off. You'll find that many of the sports lecturers are not overly experienced themselves. Then there are the facilities. The new sports facilities are lovely however if you look at other unis within 45 mins you'll see that the Hartpury facilities are about a decade behind. The careers service is LOL I never encountered them in my 3 years and the majority of those that were on my degree have had to find work in the service industry because contrary to what we were told. There isn't any work out there. Great uni if you just want to go for a laugh and play some rugby or footty. They will be happy to take your 30k and wave you off. read more

Hartpury is a great university which opens up prospects for any student who is willing to work hard. I've had so many opportunities because of Hartpury and their industry links are invaluable. The teaching and wellbeing support is great and you are able to get to know your lecturers and approach them if you are struggling. The things that could be better are the accommodation and amount of clubs and societies. read more

The facilities are amazing, you have the opportunity to use everything if you get involved. You can even get involved with some of the other business' that are onsite, I've volunteered with the Equine Therapy Centre and there are opportunities to work in the equine events office over the summer. The SU runs loads of events throughout the year including, freshers fair/week, refreshers week and Summer/Winter ball. There are a lot of societies, I've loved being part of the Hockey team and Equestrian Club. Hartpury offers career advice and helps with exam prep and assignment writing during the year. There is always someone to help with job applications and CV writing. read more

Was at hartpury for 2 years to study horse management. Felt like they taught me a variety of subjects that I now use in my daily life. This was also a business option which gave me a chance to learn about different important aspects to consider when starting your own business. Put clubs down as 1 star as never got involved in any, but overall I had a great time and hartpury and learnt lots; If I was more sure that I wanted to follow a career in horses I would’ve carried on here as I genuinely feel like they would be the best option for myself read more

Nice staff, gorgeous campus if you like outdoor spaces. Not run as well as I thought it would be in comparison to the college, my tutor takes a week to reply to emails and it feels like I don’t do much work. Full time course although I’m literally here for two and a half days a week. Sports lectures are lovely. read more
