Ratings and Reviews
The university is amazing and the staff are exceptionally helpful. Studying a course like medicine is already tough but having a university like cardiff has made life so much easier. I would choose this university every time if I had to study again.

I had a fantastic experience at Cardiff. I benefited a lot from dedicated careers advisors who helped me throughout the three years I was there.
Brilliant facilities, accommodating every need. Big range of societies and clubs, thanks to the students union being exceptional at outreach and advertising what they have on offer. The SU is by far one of the best in the country, very modern, insane student support services, if you have any problems at all, whether they be mental or physical, the student support services will go out of their way to ensure your issues are solved. Careers service allows ease of access to temporary work offers, and caters to all kinds of work, however the outreach is almost non-existent so you would usually have to hear about the careers services from a friend to use it properly. Internet is standard, nothing exceptional, and has quite frequent outages, but gets the job done when it is working, just don't depend on the uni wifi for getting things done on time, because you will be disappointed.
I received fantastic support from the Law Specialist at the time - Ms Gibson! What a difference she made helping me develop my CV from scratch and assisting me with strategies for my application. I really appreciated the value she added to my application and how it helped me eventually to find graduate employment.
uses eduroam wifi so thats s***
The wifi is rather dodgy as it loses connection when you switch buildings even though it's the same wifi network. A simple trick is to just disconnect and reconnect. I don't use all the facilities in SU but the SU lounge is a nice place to take a short nap and microwave food. If u want more peace and quiet, then just head on to the ASSL(Arts and Social Science Library) or the Postgraduate study area in SU. Staff I've met so far have been all smiles and sunshine, so no complains on that as an international student. I haven't really had any interactions with SU student representatives so I don't have any comment. There are loads of clubs to join here, so don't worry. They have a lot of career talks etc where they invite big employers, so that is a a good effort by the uni.
There are so many clubs and societies that you can join and the fairs make it easy to see what all is on offer. Wifi constantly drops but you just get used to it. Everything is really close together and very close to the city centre.
Failed me on my last law exam appealed to deaf ears if you don't have support you fail denied llb 36% pass 40%. Appeal procedure failed failed to tell them I was having mental health issues a home. Uncaring
The internet screws everyone over all the time, but heyho that's life. Had a wicked time first year. Would defiantly recommend to new fresh to get involved in as much as possible including sports and societies. Also, go out and explore as much as possible to make sure you enjoy your time at uni to the max.
Best SU in the entire country. Great old and new buildings (libraries are nice)
I'm so pleased I chose to go here
