Honestly so many opportunities it can be overwhelming at first, don't be afraid to ask for guidance as there's so many options for help too!

Joke! Tutors don’t reply, feedback a burden in the main, all they want is £9k from you. Student services pathetic, unless you have a disability or are female! Foundation - don’t work, you’ll pass, everyone gets through as they want £9k to se you fail year 1 of a degree having not proven yourself in foundation.
Management Foundation - I recently completed my course - students are disruptive (taking and watching MOVIES on phones during lectures), which goes unchallenged as, quote, “they pay to be here”. Do not worry about attending lectures or trying, I watched a student look at his phone constantly in lectures, he was given someone to take notes for him eventually. He submitted last minute trash way below the word count, failed ALL assignments, yet was given a pass with NO resits???? It demeans the effort of others. You will pass with no effort as ‘they’ want your money to Go on to a degree course. The lecturers are ok, but directives and guidance are sometimes lacking, certain individuals are lazy and incompetent. What can I say? It is a joke that people are pushed into degrees, seriously lacking effort and as such will be disruptive to others taking a degree. I had massive aspirations and pride to be in Uni, but that was soon irradiated by the quality of fellow ‘students’...
Great Uni if you have no qualifications, but be prepared to have fellow ignorant student talking through lectures. Student Services are uncaring (in my circumstances). I am a foundation student.
I am on Llandaff campus, so cannot really comment on others. After 3 years of studying here, I would not recommend. Awful support system for mental health, not heard one positive thing. Student services are not the best, assigned a note taker for dyslexia for me and a few others students, only ever received about 7 sets of notes this entire year. Second year, Turnitin failed to upload all my work, only part of it. Even after providing evidence through editing times on google documents and showing that it was clearly only an error with Turnitin, I was told they would not remark my work and I was stuck with 40%. This is not just my opinion, all of my friends also have had negative experiences with the uni. Usually, I hate complaining after working in customer services for years, but Cardiff Met is fairly bad in comparison to all my friends universities. I think the fact I have seen many memes about how s*** Cardiff Met has just summed it all up.
Excellent staff and facilities
Campus is clean and there is always something getting done to improve the university whether it be a fresh lick of paint here and there or new ideas by the students union.
Both campuses fully equipped with specialist equipment. Lectures very knowledgeable on subjects with hand on experience in the industry. Modern and attractive facilities. Club and societies are mainly competitive sports. Wi-fi pretty good also.
Really good ‘out-of-the-box’ courses. Societies are okay however many are competitive sports, should have recreational sports. The SU run 2 pubs and put on 1 ball a year.
Pretty much all good. No student union llandaff campus ? Not sure about cyncoed. In regards to nightlife ‘events’.
Great place but parking an issue, me and my friend got our cars scratched pretty badly. Mine on two occasions. Probaly best not to park on residential estate.
