Plymouth University is located at Central point of the city, surrounded by various facilities such as stores, food outlets, accommodation and health services. Not only is it located at a central point for new students and boarding but it has numerous facilities that aid in support and building life in the UK. Various clubs and culture awareness is evident and welcoming for all!! Lectures are supportive and courses are clearly planned and executed. Inclusive and mindful practice evident in staff and support available for disabled students whom are very much able to enjoy and participate in events organised. Student support are tremendous and views are heard and relayed. Library access 24hours and resources to help improve assignments and help available to all. Great things are happening at the University of Plymouth.

Plymouth University has a welcoming environment and all the facilities there are brilliant. I couldn’t recommend it more to anyone. The only issue I can think of is that the clubs at the moment are struggling due to a decrease in funding from the student Union. This however is a minor issue in the grand scheme of things and I’m sure will improve in the coming years.

As a third-year student midwife at the University of Plymouth, I’ve had a largely positive experience throughout my time here. The campus is well-equipped, and while I haven’t had much time to engage with clubs, societies, or SU activities due to the demands of my degree, it’s clear there are plenty of opportunities for students to get involved. The careers service has been helpful and responsive, offering relevant support as I prepare for life after graduation. Internet access has generally been reliable and sufficient for my study needs. Overall, I’ve had a positive experience, with good support available—even if my course has limited my ability to take full advantage of everything on offer. I do think hot water should be free to students, though! And a wider availability of water fountains/fill-ups and cutlery as it is often quite a walk to source these.

Discovery heights is in the perfect location just across the road from Plymouth university. All the staff are really helpful and will cater to any individual needs you may have. Casey the receptionist is so friendly and always manages to put a smile on your face especially after a stressful day at university. Janet the housekeeper is also super friendly and always makes sure to say hello whenever she sees you. All the accommodation staff celebrate holidays and go above and beyond for celebrations like Christmas and valentines which is the perfect way to make new friends. It really does feel like a house away from home.
