History and Politics, BA Hons FullTime
International student fees dock a star automatically, but it is quite decent value overall. Tutors are the best for some content, but some were lacklustre or absent and didn’t schedule all of our tutorials. Job prospects seem good, but then why am I not getting my offer letters/calls to interview? :( But otherwise yes it’s the best, couldn’t and wouldn’t have chosen any other course anywhere else. read more

Really s*** university whose main concerns are a) extracting your fees b) covering up any concern and maintaing their reputation. A university ruled by lawlessness and cronyism where as a student very little rights or protections. read more

I like the tutorial system, although it can be very intense which some people struggle with. The course is flexible and has lots of options but I kind of wish there were more as other universities seemed to have many more. read more

Classics with Asian and Middle Eastern Studies, BA Hons FullTime
Actually studied Oriental Studies but it is not an option on this site. Fantatsic course, immersive, broad in scope. It gives you the best cultural education. Job prospects good but not necessarily in the areas you may think. read more
