⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Studying at Bath Spa University’s Canary Wharf Campus has been an amazing experience. The lecturers are supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about their students’ success. The campus is modern, professional, and provides an excellent environment for learning, with reliable Wi-Fi and great facilities. As a Health and Social Care student, I have gained valuable knowledge, confidence, and practical experience. I highly recommend the Canary Wharf Campus to anyone looking for a supportive and inspiring place to study. read more

I was able to find a lot of friends through my time here and through the Darts and Pool society, there was great facilities and Newton Park is well kept and beautiful. The buses have always been a struggle however I recognise they have attempted to improve this. The careers service does not come to you, you do need to seek out support rather than the other way around, and this can be a struggle with the full schedule and workload of a student, however I was able to gain part-time employment through Bath Spa Careers. Library is perfect environment for study. It could have wider range of philosophy books. read more

Course: BA Business & Entrepreneurship University: Bath Spa University My experience at Bath Spa has been positive overall. The campus environment is one of the biggest strengths — it’s calm, green, and a great place to study or relax between classes. The lecturers in my course are supportive and genuinely want students to succeed, especially when it comes to developing practical skills like presentations, teamwork, and real‑world business thinking. Accommodation was comfortable and well‑located, with easy access to buses and campus facilities. There were occasional maintenance delays, but the staff were usually responsive once contacted. What I’ve appreciated most is the sense of community. It’s easy to meet people, and the university offers plenty of opportunities to get involved, whether academically or socially. Overall, I’d recommend Bath Spa to students who value a friendly atmosphere and a creative, supportive learning environment. read more
