Most helpful review

Very good at the university especially when it comes to your options with getting involved with any clubs/ societies, so many options. I would definitely recommend everyone to get involved with at least one.

Being such a small university means we have become a tight-knit community at Aston, but by no means do we do things on a small scale. The opportunities available, both academic and social, are plentiful and there is something for everyone.

With Aston being a smaller university everyone knows everyone which makes it more friendly. There is a good cultural mix which is great for socialising and learning new things.

If you want to have a great time at Aston you can, all you need to do is open yourself up to opportunities rather than hide yourself away and not try anything out. The employability rate is great, everyone is friendly and helpful and the campus is so green and nice. Within the business school the lectures can be too large and impersonal but the VLE is very helpful.

One of the most homely and amazing campuses. Great nightlife, lots to explore in Birmingham and so many societies to enjoy. Accomodation a bit expensive but other than the the cost of living is ideal for any student!!
