Absolutely DO NOT go anywhere near this university. The lecturer are totally hands-off and then at the end of the semester push the feedback about the students needing to be more engaging. Five degrees across three countries and I can say this is the worst experience I've ever had. read more

ARU has a good sized facility, including a whole separate facility for the healthcare course that’s well equipped at the Cambridge site. The societies/clubs have been a lot of fun. Namely, the sports clubs, in my case taekwondo. I have met so many friends here, and had the opportunity to participate in fun events like competitions and dinners and other social events. It’s also allowed me to grow, as I never thought I could actively take part in such a sport, but it has been encouraging and fun read more

The Cambridge Campus feels somewhat neglected. For instance, the heating was off in the library so much so that students brought duvets in to study there and were wearing coats and could literally see our breathe in there. A window was broken on our first class of term in September, it’s now almost March the following year and it’s still broken (fully smashed, not just stuck, the glass is shattered!). The sockets don’t work in most of the lecture theatres, meaning you have to bring multiple device when you have 4 hour long classes in there. Meanwhile, the university are bragging about their brand new state of the art campus they’ve just opened in Peterborough, and about their Chelmsford campus. Most of the tutors for our course are from the Chelmsford campus, which Means their offices are in Chelmsford so those students get much more support than the 1 day a week we get at Cambridge. read more
