Student Review: 1.6 /5
By member539257 On 12th June 19 verified Verified student

The university promotes themselves for their care towards students, but in my three years of being there, i’ve been on my own fully and no constructive criticism. My grades depend on the lectures options if they like the work, not mark on the quality. We have not been taught a single thing. Hate that i’ve wasted so much money when google has actually given me my degree.

My experience at Kent uni has been average at best. The library has spent the whole time being rebuilt so was always a mess. The general campus was so not so bad, but it was the Erasmus team which was appalling and ruined my university experience. In fact all the higher people at uni were shambolic in nowothey dealt with situations. Very poor

It’s a good uni, but more needs to be done to cater for the students. Like lecturers need to reply their emails more often and we should have compulsory academic advisor meeting every two weeks at least.

I did a year abroad here and I liked it. Great student life and nightlife, a lot of fun. But it is a very posh uni and I didn't like all the profs. The burocracy tried to Rip you off at every chance. Also its hella expensive and even coming from a privledged family in Canada I felt a little out of place with all the super rich people here which is shocking. Many people are nice but there are some assholes and a ridiculous number of Tories who don't seem aware of how privledged they are and how hard it is for normal people to get by here. Thankfully its only half of the people here and you can find people like you who aren't modern day aristocrats. There's enough diversity that you can find people like you

The gym is ridiculously overpriced for the facilities that it has. The students union only care about the appearance of the university to other people and not about the actual students, ignoring rape allegations in the rugby society whilst completely banning another society for a few people’s comments. The lecturers take ages to reply to emails or to give back essay results, even if there is a set date. About 70% of the plugs in the library do not work and about 80% of the laptops don’t work, which makes it hard for students who want to study for exams. There is always no space in the library, so more seats need to be placed in there. The internet is ok, not the best ever, quite slow at times.

Staff are unhelpful and lazy. Some of the buildings are old and were built by a prison architect. Course leaders are lazy and show a lack of interest in a student’s degree. Students Union is the worst in the world, choosing to punish an entire society for the actions of a couple of students, and completely ignoring rape allegations in the Rugby society. Worst Uni in the country!!

The campus is lovely, quirky, relaxingly rural/wildlifey and creative. Nice library, buildings and environment with town close by. I study Anthropology Bsc. The Biological side is really good, though I have nothing to compare it to. The social anthropology side seems to leave something to be desired occasionally, though I am not sure if that is just the discipline as a whole or some of my lecturers. Overall a pleasant university. If you like somewhere countrysidey (yet still vibrant) but close to London then this is the place for you.

My lecturers and seminar leaders are super committed to helping us learn the think outside the box. We constantly have new, cutting edge modules taught by doctors and professors who are paving the way for new medical and scientific history. The library is well stocked and the online resources are boundless. We are also taught great research skills and to look beyond the university's library. It was a difficult step going from the hand-holding of a-level, but the tutors give you the confidence to make your owb path.

Absolutely brilliant and wholesome experience. There are people from all over who come here. I do think that certain people here don't deserve to be here because they are uninspired and moronic.

A corrupt, unsupportive, profit orientated university within which about 90% of the lecturers are condescending, rude and unreasonable. Blatant and extreme favouritism shown to previous Kent students (I am at postgraduate level) so that they are at a massive advantage. Zero empathy and support offered by lecturers to students experiencing mental health difficulties, while being disproportionately concerned by benign absences. Countless ridiculous problems with course structure and grading systems. Extortionate fees while receiving basically nothing in return E.g. gym, clubs and societies are SO EXPENSIVE creating even further socioeconomic divides within the university. I really hate this university, and the only positives I can think of have been with relation to the student wellbeing teams. Overall, it is terrible and I regret ever moving country to attend.

The university is picturesque and well set out. Most reviews bringing it down are from the Medway campus however the Canterbury campus is great looks and quality of teaching.

Tbh I enjoyed most of my time at uni of Kent. My biggest troubles came from GK Unions a shabby organisation full of incompetence and fake people. Socialising has been encouraged by the uni but the surrounding area of Medway is life draining and no matter how many free fundraisers Kent puts on everyone would rather stay at home and smoke.

It’s not too bad but lots of my courses lecturers left suddenly reducing our choice for 3rd year modules. They also had a huge problem with our exam time tables and coursework deadlines giving them all at once basically. And to top it all off the timetable and moodle are always down ! Maybe it’s iust my course though :/ Saying this however , the campus is very nice with a friendly atmosphere

Great uni, interesting lectures, fantastic staff. Employability service is great, so many opportunities for jobs/placements/work experience. Administration isn't great (re strikes last year) but uni as a whole is still wonderful

Kent is a completely superficial university. In terms of facilities etc. it’s good, but teaching is abysmal, staff only care about themselves and their recognition, and will just exploit phd students who need to work as professors. It deserves to have gone down the tables so fast as it has little desire to help the students, especially with mental health, which there is minimal work with.

Lecturers aren't very helpful and don't seem to care. They say they're always happy for students to ask for help, but for my course so many lecturers were on sabbatical that there were only 5 available for everyone doing a dissertation so the support just wasn't there when it should have been. The mental health facilities for students are terrible, they even admitted that most students 'fall through the cracks' and I know a number of students who suffered because of it. Honestly regret doing my degree there and wish I could go back in time and choose a different university.

Beautiful campus with great facilities. The library is well designed and maintained, despite how busy it eats during exam season. The societies available are great and make the campus seem very sociable and inclusive.

Medway campus has lack of facilities. Greenwich Sport hall is twice as expensive as Greenwich students. Business School is far away from campus, which takes 30-40 mins walk from Accommodation.

Set in the beautiful city of Canterbury, the University has a very varied campus with the new buildings being drastically better than the old ones. Teaching staff all from all over the world and are friendly.

Facilities are good, but there is not enough for the amount of students, facilities are also not always maintained: if you’re lucky enough to get a computer it is rarely clean or working. I was disappointed with the quality of education, I understand that university involves a lot of independent work, but for 9K a year I expected more hours, more guidance and better quality education in classes such as seminars. I have felt like I am going into exams and doing essays blind, not knowing what to do due to lack of guidance. When you ask for guidance you often do not get responses and if you do they are not very helpful, seminar leaders seem to have been given little extra guidance than us students. The university often asks students during and at the end of terms to give feedback, I have included all these issues in these feedback opportunities, however very little has been addressed. Lecturers are generally good.
