The internet needs to be a bit better in some cases, as sometimes the access point is full and we cannot get access to it. Though there is a website for careers called Hired, the jobs are either not relevant to my course or aren't available. read more

I've had my worst experience in education at this University they do not care about students well being or mental health at all they are just money hungry I'm talking mostly about the Finance department other members of staff were nice and friendly. The university finance department told me I could not enroll for second year to the University because I had outstanding debt with UCB Maltings, I had trouble paying this last year and was looking for a way around this paying in instalments the Finance department refused and demanded I pay over 2000 before enrolment which I do not have. They have taken my money for first year and now im stranded in Birmingham when im from London in accomodation I payed for until January I also have no money because I was expecting student finance and have no savings. They clearly only care about money and not the students well being or education they just want money I would recommend not going to the University and picking another Uni in Birmingham read more
