They have been quite slow when it comes to responding to emails at times. They have not handled the blended learning as well as they could have.

University of greenwich is a fantastic place for study. I am very proud of my achievements during my time at university. The dedication and hard work that have been put into my learning, that allowed me to succeed in many ways as well as developed other essential skills that required in future, like, being able to communicate confidently, understanding others, presentation skills and many others. I would suggest everyone to join whether they are mature or overseas students. All the staff members are very friendly, helpful and willing to provide support to the students.
Hi, Thank you for your review! It is fantastic to hear how you have thrived whilst at Greenwich and developed your professional skillset. -Cait
Very good facilities provided. Bring a student of the medway campus, I’ve access to the other campuses as well and I’m able to use all the facilities. Since the restrictions caused by Covid, I wasn’t fully able to get the most of the university facilities. Hoping my second term to be the best.
Hi, Thanks for your review! We hope with the easing restrictions of COVID-19 precautions, our students will be able to enjoy and explore the full range of our facilities once again. -Cait

University of Greenwich is a life changing experience for me. You can't expect the university to provide each and every thing. If you have the willingness to make a positive impact for yourself and the society and walk some extra mile, the University would open its door in every possible ways.
Hi, It is great to hear that you pushed yourself to explore all Greenwich has to offer! -Cait
I am glad to choose this university. Thank you.

I was here for my masters and the two years have been great. Since day 1 the university experience was very delightful. The campus is so big and the faculty offers amazing lectures throughout all the courses. The career services helped me get a placement which I'm very grateful for.

Enjoyable, well organised, caring teachers.
Hi, Thank you for your response, We are glad you had a enjoyable time and was supported throughout your studies. ~Harvey
I personally like everything the small activities to, the student union the point of keeping the personal tutor. I can count on my fingers easily there are many it all depends upon on yourself how much active you're with the societies and the extracurricular activities all will help you and guide you and at the end, it's you who have to apply and be constant.
Hi Aaliya, Thank you for your review! It is great to hear that you are enjoying the activities held by the Greenwich Student union and made good use of your personal tutor. Whilst it is important to push yourself, we are proud that the university is able to support students when needed. - Abissha
The University of Greenwich is a lovely place to study it is split into three campuses Medway, Greenwich, and Avery Hill Campus. Greenwich campus is the best in terms of facilities, clubs and society’s. Avery hill is second best and more of a accommodation place for students and a few classrooms and a really big sports hall so it is like a little village area. Their is free travel to both areas provided by the SU. The SU office is mainly at Greenwich campus but their is one located at each campus and a careers service centre. Free WiFi across all 3 campuses. Medway is a little isolated but overall very big and nice. However you are charged to travel back and forth from Medway campus so that can be expensive also it is very far. However life over their is quite fun especially if you live on campus.
Hi, Thanks so much for your review, and for touching on each of our unique campuses! You can learn more about each of our campuses here: Greeniwch, Avery Hill, Medway. Each are beautiful and interesting in their own right. Travelling between Avery Hill and Greenwich is easy; we have a free campus bus that regularly runs between the two. Getting to Medway may take a bit longer, but the commute is worth it to see the impressive historic campus. All prospective students should expect to be wowed by our facilities and locations, no amtter which of our three campuses they end up on! -Cait
A fantastic university that really cares for its staff and pupils. Throughout the pandemic, we have been supported socially, emotionally, financially and in our studies. Equally, the university values employability and supports you in gaining the skills and applying for jobs. You’re valued as a person starting a new career and they help make your dreams happen.

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to rate the University of Greenwich. We are so happy to hear you appreciated our diverse campus and student body! -Cait
Greenwich University has been absolutely fantastic for me. The course is excellent, and the lecturers are fantastic at assisting students. They take a personal interest in students' lives and well-being, as well as how to balance it with external challenges. The welfare team is incredible, and as a first-year student, the university does an excellent job of integrating students.
Hi, Thank you for your lovely review! You can read more about our student support and welfare services here: https://www.gre.ac.uk/student-services/support. The University of Greenwich strives to offer unique support to every student. -Cait
Great university, has good facilities and supports it’s student well. Only problem is that some lecturers have really strong accents which are near to impossible to understand. Other than that it’s a very good university, staff are nice, employability services are excellent. Highly recommend!
We are pleased that you are enjoying your time at the University of Greenwich!
There are great facilities on campus, science labs, paramedic science labs, criminology labs, Engineering labs and new Food labs in Jelico. There are 3 food places at part of the University of Greenwich, my personal favourite is the cafe in Pembroke where you can get fresh pizza's made to order. However, the deep ends good for evenings as the karaoke society practices once a week, there's pool table, sports and films shown and they have events like silent disco too. There are also two cafes from the university of Kent and Canturbury which you can go in to, I like the smoothies from the Kent cafe. There is a veriety of clubs and society's, Student union are active and the careers service is there to help through pdp modules or individual appointments, the only thing that needs Improving is the Wifi.
Hi there, We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying the on-campus facilities including the academic and social sides of the university. The societies are a really great way to meet new people and find hobbies that you might not have thought of before! We are very proud to say that the student's union has so many to choose from (more info on our socieities here!). You mentioned that the wifi could be improved, I would suggest having a look at the eduroam configuration assistant tool (CAT) as this has definitely made my connection more reliable. You can have a look at that here. - Duncan
I am currently completing my MBA in International Business with Greenwich and the support I received as an International student has been fantastic. Despite the challenges with COVID-19 restrictions, the overall experience has been really good. It is a beautiful city, gorgeous campus, diverse teaching staff !
Hi, Thank you for taking time to leave us a review. We are so happy to hear that you feel supported in your studies with us. The university also has mental health support available to students within the wellbeing hub and also information from external orginisations that can help. You can find more info on that here. -Duncan
Applying to this university was probably one of the best decisions I have made in my life! The idea of attending university itself was quite daunting to think about at the beginning. However, once I started my course here I felt so at ease. There was always help available such as the library staff and the academic support services, so I did not feel like I was alone when completing my assignments. I have had an enjoyable experience so far and have made so many memories as well as lifelong friends. If you are thinking about applying here, I would definitely say not to give it a second thought and go for it :)
Hi, Thanks for your review, we are so glad to hear that you are enjoying your experience studying with the University of Greenwich.

Best of luck with your studies and if you have any general queries, feel free to give us a call on 02083319000 between 9am and 5pm during the week. -Duncan
I have had a brilliant few years at Greenwich, I am a bit sad to be graduating this year as I will miss it! All of the staff are really supportive and there are so many employability opportunities whilst studying, as well as when you are graduating. There are many different clubs and societies that you can get involved in, and there are also a lot of very well-paid student jobs available! I am confident that I made the right decision by studying here, I have had a really positive experience and would recommend this university.
Hi, Thanks so much for your review. We are glad that you have had such an enjoyable time studying at Greenwich! It sounds like you have made the most of your time here and gotten involved with lots of different opportunitites. Our degrees are career focused and strive to help you with your own personal development and employability. Like you mention, we also do have a variety of part time student roles available, such as Student Ambassador roles and roles within the student union. -Cait
The University of Greenwich is an amazing university and is really under appreciated! We have amazing facilities and lecturers. There is so much support available for students and I always kno who to contact if I am ever in need of help. My mental health has been so low at points and I've always had problems but was able to get help through the university which I am so grateful for. There are also lots of academic support workshops and appointments that help me with assignments. All lecturers are really helpful and very approachable! I particularly recommend all healthcare courses!
Hi, Thank you for your review! We are happy to hear that you have felt supported academically and mentally thoughout your time at Greenwich. You can read more about come of our student support and services here. -Cait
I’ve completed my undergrad in Business Management at UoG and loved every moment of it. This is a great uni where the main focus is student satisfaction. Teachers are really great and easy to reach, you can always rely on the employability team who can help with any sort of career related query. I was also part of the Student Ambassador team where I was able to gain so many experiences and meet amazing people, with great pay also! Would do my degree there all over again if I could.
Thank you so much for the review. We are happy to hear that you have had such a positive experience at the university. Wish you all the best in your future endeavours!AS
The University of Greenwich stands out for me as it has allowed me to better integrate myself into the university experience as a student coming from abroad through a foundation year. The foundation year has given me the exclusive support required to further my self development and better prepare for the years to come. I had the chance to live in halls for the first 2 years, however I had to leave as during my second year as the pandemic had led the country to a lockdown and so I could no longer afford to live there as I had to leave the country to be with my family. I must say I appreciate how lenient the university halls were with allowing me to cancel my contract without penalising me for it. The content and quality of teaching along with the lecturers and staff support from day one were exceptional, even though the pandemic has made it tough on both staff and students to motivate, engagement is facilitated through one-to-ones and various resources for independent learning.
Hi, Thanks so much for taking time to write your review. We are proud to have such a large population of international students at the University of Greenwich. We are glad that you are satisifed with the adjustments we have made in response to the global pandemic, and that you are still able to enjoy university life. -Cait
During the pandemic with new variants and increased risk to all of us and our families, the university is putting profit before compassion. I’m being told I can’t be released from my tenancy, despite others being allowed to leave early, because my mother needing a career at home as a high risk person isn’t a good enough reason. I’m extremely disappointed as the university is repeatedly sending out what are now empty condolences and messages to us, yet no action by university staff outside of the students union is reflecting this.
We are sorry to hear this regarding your experience at the university during this difficult time. We hope this was resolved!
University of Greenwich is underrated university! To begin with - I completed work placement. University's employability services helped me to find a placement, prepared me for interviews and even checked my cv and cover letter. On the top of that they organise multiple seminars and workshops to improve your employability skills which is essential for such a competitive job market in London. I also participated in student exchanges - with University of Greenwich support we found a perfect fit for me in Spain where I was able to improve my Spanish language skills! Talking about university in general the support from academics is always outstanding. Prior to the covid thing we would meet on weekly basis with our personal tutor who is always here to help no matter is it personal or just something to do with your assignments. There are so many things I could say. But word limit doesn't allow me. If you are considering to apply do it! You will thank me latter
Hi, Thanks for your review! We are so pleased to hear that you have enjoyed your time so far at the University of Greenwich and made full use of our rescources to boost your employability and personal development. -Cait
I’ve a good advice to all potential students. Please avoid Greenwich University. It’s a beautiful location and beautiful buildings. Nothing else. Inside it looks terrible. The level of teaching extremely low. Many lecturers do not speak a proper English. The biggest regret to join the university. No support from the stuff at all. Avoid!!!
Hi, We are sorry to hear that you had a negative experience studying with us. Have you tried reaching out to our Student Support and Services? Our Student Centre is always available to offer broad advice and direct you to specialist services if needed. If you are having issues with lecturers and faculty, please do contact your personal tutor, or get in touch with our many other members of staff who are available to support you with your studies, such as subject librarians and academic skills tutors. -Cait
The campus is beautiful, however if you want a good academic experience I personally would not recommend this university. Out of 8 of my lecturers, only two of them actually actively give their students constant support, the others just don't teach. My "personal tutor" who is meant to help us during our three years in university has never, NEVER replied to ANY OF MY EMAILS IN THE THREE YEARS. I thought I was the only one who she didn't reply to, turns out she doesn't reply to any of my coursemate's emails either. Absolute shambolic of an education system and they are so disorganised.
Hi, Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you are disatisfied with your academic expeience and your personal tutor specifically. You are able to request a new personal tutor by getting in touch with your module leader and presenting your case of why you would like this change. We hope this helps anyone else looking to do so in the future. We also have a multitude of other facets of academic support that students are able to contact. -Cait
Overall I think the university isn't bad, the facilities are old and the university is doing the best they can with what they have. I love the library and all the available resources to use for coursework as well as personal development. I haven't interacted with Students Union much. There are quite a few interesting societies and clubs available but it's difficult to be a part of them if you don't live on campus. What I am completely disappointed with is the complete lack of support for students and their mental health. The services provided by university are very minimal and not helpful. Many lectures are very condescending and sometimes seem to not understand that students have other responsibilities, such as work. The faculty members on higher positions only seem to care about money and treat university as a business.
Hi, Thank you for your response. We are sorry to hear that you did not have the best experience at the university. We do have a student wellbeing service on campus. Thank you for taking out time and writing us a review. ~Harvey
good uni for opportunity, our business campus is boujee and has featured in many films
Hi, Thank you for your review! The impressive historical buildings of our Greenwich campus have indeed been the filming location for many films. Most recently, the Netflix mystery film "Enola Holmes" used the Royal Naval College as the backdrop for many scenes. -Cait
The campus facilities are not that bad.
Hi, Thanks for your review. -Cait
Are you seriously going to rate an university based on its campus and WiFi? It's a really bad university, yet it's getting ratings high for its campus and resources. Gotta admit they are not bad, but really? Aren't we going to rate an university based on the level of teaching? These 2 stars are not for the campus facilities, but for the teaching quality so keep that in mind.
Hi, We apologise that you have been having internet issues. You should be able to connect to eduroam on all of our campuses. If you are having issues, please visit this webpage or contact the IT service desk. Thank you for taking out time and writing us a response.
Taking my course here was the worst decision of my life. Falsely advertised course, poor teaching, no solid teaching body through the entire 3 years, learnt more in 2 weeks work experience than 3 years here. Students Personally attacked on grading if negative commetns of the course were made or attendance is poor. Numerous students graded poorly after not being taught sufficiently. Overall just a business without student interest at heart.
Hi, We apologise that you have not had the best expereince at our university. We do truly care about all of our students. Thank you for taking out time and writing us a response. ~Harvey
The school facilities are okay.
Hi! Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear you have nejoyed the university's facilities. -Cait
Overall, Good.Nice new library,24 hrs drinkable water supply, your best friend during end of year. Environment is good, in fact awesome, specially during Autumn. Student Union..........no comment, building placed at weird spot where you normally wouldn't get close except live next to it. Career support is good, cv check, periodic career or internship event helps a lot. If you're a self motivate student and always appear in events, "merit" you obtained may form the "Employability passport",which give you some advantage. --------- There are good things doesn't mean perfect. first, it's small,specially if you're not counting the library. There isn't a timelord wearing like British to redecorate it. Further more not all teacher are good, several prefer put everything in powerpoint and just simply read out,causing lecture become pointless. last, if you're [Asian], they might force you to study with other Asian(CN) instead of local student.(Even you're from Japan or Korea)
Hi, Thank you for your lovely response. We are gald you had a positive experience at the University Of Greenwich. ~Harvey
I love it so much and I am sure that I will miss it when I finish my study!!!

Do no come to this university to study engineering. It's awful. The first comum year, is more basic than A-levels, lectures ain't helpful, some lectures don't even speak English properly.
Hi, Thank you for your response, We are sorry that you did not have a good experience. All our engineering degrees share a common first year before you go on to specialise in your chosen area of engineering. Thank you for taking out time to write a review. ~Harvey
Such wonderful facility and campus
Hi, Thanks so much for your review. We are pleased to hear that you have enjoyed your time at our University. -Cait
I lived on Avery Hill Campus for my first year and it felt as if there was nothing to do socially, and because my course was located on Avery Hill campus I felt secluded from the actual university itself and was unable to socialise with others who were attending courses on the main campus. There was a bus into Greenwich (took about 30 mins) but once you got there there wasn't really a lot to do and the last bus was at 9pm therefore if you wanted to go to the students union there you wouldn't be able to spend long there.
Hi, It is sad to hear that you had a bad experience living on the Avery Hill campus. We do have accomodation available on the Greenwich campus. The Avery Hill campus is located just outside of Etham high street, which is populated with grocery stores, clothes shops, restaurants, a cinema, historical sites such as Eltham Palace, and green spaces. There is something for everyone to enjoy, allowing people living on this campus to have many social outings in their area. Additionally, we offer a very frequent and free bus shuttle service between the Avery Hill and the Greenwich campuses, with buses every 15 minutes during the day. Local buses, such as the 286, also travel between the two campuses for £1.50 for a single ride. -Cait
The new library and the area is nice, that's about it. Student Union?.... what Student Union? In my 3 years at Greenwich, I only went there 2 times as there was nothing to do there. I really really regret coming here now, I really do :(
Hi, We are sorry to hear you feel disappointed with your experience at Greenwich, specifically with the Student Union. The Union Officers change every year, and with this staffing change comes new events and plans. Check out the website to see the latest news, upcoming events, or even run for one of the officer positions yourself-this way ensuring the Student Union runs more to your liking. -Cait
I am currently doing my PGCE (Secondary education) with Greenwich. This University was one my choices amongst others. And I am glad I chose this place. The whole secondary education staff have been very helpful. The help and support offered by this Uni. is second to none especially with such an intensive course. I have found the course very well structured and tutors very helpful and supportive. I would strongly recommend this Uni. to people who are considering to pursue PGCE in the future.
Hi, Thanks so much for your review! We are pleased to hear you are enjoying working towards your PGCE with us and that the secondary education staff have been helpful. Ofsted rated the quality of teacher training in secondary education at the University of Greenwich as 'Good' in its report for Initial Teacher Education 2016. You can find the webpage for our PGCE's here. Join our wonderful secondary education department in Avery Hill today! -Cait
not much information on how to join societies, but the campus itself is pretty and the buildings are gorgeous
Hi, Thanks so much for your review! It is great to hear that you appreciate our historical campus. To join a society, you can visit the Greenwich Student Union website (seperate from the official university website). The site provides a list of what is on offer, how to join, and even how to start a new group yourself. For students based on the Medway campus, the GKSU website shows the societies on offer to you. We have a great range of student groups covering loads of different interests, from cultural socieites like the Bangladeshi society, to ones focused on common interests, like the Harry Potter society. -Cait
Underwhelming compared to the initial impression, it really depends on your course choice. Make sure you are prepared to gain most of your learning from the available facilities etc
Hi, We are sorry to hear you found your university experience underwhelming, but glad that you felt you could depend upon our facilities. -Cait
The staff in the education department as so helpful!

University of Greenwich has a beautiful campus that sits on a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Makes me feel like I'm studying in Hogwarts!
Hi, Thank you for your review! The University's Greenwich Maritime campus is very impressive. This webpage allows you to take a tour of some of the most beautiful parts of the campus, as well as detailing the public transport links nearby and historical landmarks/things to do. -Cait
A lively and easily accessible inner city university with rich history and coupled with its high level of international students, allows for a deeply accepting society. University facilities more than meet the standards of the course and the contact hours are well spent. Lecturers are always willing to help, even out of hours.

Couldn't be more happy with my uni - The most beautiful campus, great and professional teaching staff, amazing course content.
Hi, We are so happy to hear that you are pleased with the university and your entire experience here! -Cait
Beautiful Greenwich Campus. Great location in London. Lots of good clubs and societies. Great location for work experience in London. Wifi in all campus buildings.
Hi, Thank you for your lovely response, we are glad you have had an amazing time at the University Of Greenwich. ~Harvey
Perhaps a lack of dynamic Clubs and Societies
Hi! You can find a full list of societies offered by the Student Union here. We have a range of societies from academic, to political, to ones for unique interests such as Anime or Disney. -Cait
The Union bar is amazing, really colourful and cheap in terms of drink and food. There are clubs, however not so many that cater to my needs personally and all the good ones seem to be over on a different campus which is not very convenient. In terms of career opportunities the uni will help you but it's up to the individual to make their own opportunities arise both through academia and by networking.
Hi, Thank you for your response, we are glad to know you enjoyed the union bar. We also have a employability and careers page. Thank you for taking out time and writing us a review. ~Harvey
a bit unorganised and not many clubs but a nice setting and relaxed atmosphere.
Hi, Thanks for your review. We are pleased that you enjoy the university's unique setting and atmosphere. For information on clubs and societies, please visit the Student Union website, both the Greenwich/Avery Hill union site and the Medway site. The Student Union is very active and holds events year round (virtually during the current pandemic), as do our clubs and societies.
