I was only on the course for 2 weeks before dropping out as I felt it wasn't for me and the teaching quality is just average.

I feel lucky to seek after PhD degree her after my fantastic supervision teams. And all the teachers in our department are so supportive and willing to help. My first supervisor is especially excellent in his way to inspire me and help me! This aside, he allows me space and time to find and clarify my way. I'm grateful! read more

The course is very good for what I personally want to do - however in your first year you will be doing more literature modules than creative writing ones, which effected my mental health a lot because I hate studying literature and I wasn't very good at it. I actually almost killed myself. Some of the teachers are great, Adelle is a nightmare - beware Adelle. read more

The course is very good and enriching. Staff are always working on new ways to improve things, where necessary. More contact hours would be nice, however, as I currently only have 7 a week and I'm told they will decrease further over the next two years. There are exciting opportunities to partake on study abroad, work placements, and learn a new languages, which many other universities do not offer. read more

I love my course so much, so much variety, helpful and friendly people. However, I believe I have a lack of seminars/lectures and only being in Monday and Wednesday morning and Tuesday's is not worth what the course costs-feel like I'm doing open university rather than a full time course read more
