Absolutely terrible uni. The Bay campus library is far too small with not enough computers and the uni management refuse to do anything about it. Singleton looks like a filthy, run down council estate. Library staff are rude and unhelpful. Many lecture theaters do not even have proper whiteboards and the projectors frequently malfunction. The on site tesco is too small and always runs out of food at lunch time. All other campus food options are horribly overpriced. Accomodation is overpriced and substandard, for instance one oven for 12 rooms and always cold. To be fair some lecturers are good and helpful but some are appallingly bad. Many modules you just end up having to teach yourself. Many societies are completely inactive. The uni always solicits student feedback but never acts on it.
Overall university is very good, the student union could be improved on
Not really any societies for me to be honest. I find it a little intimidating going to the meetings because they are led by diehard fans of the certain subject (Disney society, GOT society etc etc)
As probably one of the only first years who couldn't find a society to join, I'm probably more at fault than than the societies are. Swansea is a very sports-oreintated university, and if you're about as good as a small infant when it comes to hand eye coordination, that could be a problem. However, if there was a musical theatre society, I'd join in a heartbeat.
Internet was not very reliable or quick, library is not large enough (non-silent areas lack space during exam season)
The food in 52 degrees is shockingly bad, avoid the burger which I left on the plate half an hour ago in utter disgust, it was like a burnt brick and tasted off, the wifi is non existent and the atmosphere the same. Such a shame as it could be a little gold mine.
active, motivated and determined staff and accommodation services.
Very stressful during exam period but well worth going to uni for, socially and academically it excels you. A lot of independent learning though.
friendly environment, stunning location and great nightlife
I love Swansea but crap weather
