Unite students night security team the best in keeping us safe. Thabk you dean and safety team
Good societies and helpful lectures
dean and the security team helped with the flood
One of the best uni to study and have social life experiences
The buildings looks so old and depressing
I loved spending time at the campus and the classes, study spaces and library are good place to spend quality time
Aston University truly allows international students to feel at most comfortable with one of the top of the shelf education system
It’s a good university to study at.
Good, can be improved by adding drinking water facility and additional student offers in the canteens as well as cafeterias etc.
Aston is a great University, there’s many events and activities posted around so that one can increase their social circle and just have general fun. The facilities in the school are also great and there’s many study spaces that are open 24/7 which is quite handy.
I'm liking the environment but the study material rid not helping me to understand the module. Guidance required and adaptation is very challenging!
Proud to study at Aston. It has fantastic facilities
Great teaching facilities and friendly staff
Very good lectures with lots of detail. Lecturers are helpful and seminars are very interactive
Aston University is a joy to go to, with an open campus and fantastic lecturers the experience has been brilliant so far.
Made many friends and had a great time
dont come uni charge it to the game
Best Student Union. Completely different experience
A pretty good university with a friendly staff
No complaints here, all good till now.
Great su, the staff are very friendly
It's a dream come true. The location, the people, the atmosphere are all top-notch.
Juliet at the student union was very accommodating.
Pretty decent experience. Small but city cenre campus.
Average educational experience but sports and extra curriculum are spot on.
Amazing location from onyx - very convenient
Love the location easy and convenient from onyx
Good university, nice location near the city centre.
The student's union over the past 4 years has gone from supporting students and collaborating with clubs and socities, to ticking boxes to win awards. The students are no longer a priority for ASU...
Very welcoming and very easy to communicate with
I've enjoyed my time at Aston very much so. However, I didn't find the support to be of much use, I don't think I learnt much in my lectures and the students union are as useful as a chocolate toothrbush.
Good uni. Nice staff. Nice campus
Aston was a fantastic experience for me. I was well-cared for, and teachers, students, and others were accommodating. I had a great time at Aston
Amazing university. Amazing staff. Nice people. Amazing teachers. Perfect place
Professional staff with good teaching facilities.
Aston University has simply gone downhill since I started in 2018. The care about students was (and continues to be) non-existent during the pandemic and subsequent months. Student satisfaction is not really desired, they simply want your money.
Perfect, place for course studies.
Not much to complain about the University, very diverse, nice looking. Lecturers willing to help you, generally good community of students
Aston was an excellent experience for me. Coming from a foreign country, I got well-taken care of, and teachers, students, etc., are accommodating. The school has a lot of fun societies, I really enjoyed my time at Aston
very nice place and nice staff in the old fire station. It's very convenient for the students studying in Aston University
Love the uni and it's location right in the city
ACM - this university campus is quite small in Birmingham however the facilities are quality. The studios are packed with professional equipment for students to use however with COVID going on during lockdown the online classes did not meet expectations.
Very difficult with the pandemic
BSc Biological sciences student here. The teaching has been amazing and the teachers are truly seasoned professionals (as expected). Teachers have always offered their time to help students who do not understand the content. In my opinion, lab practicals are the most fun part of the course and the teachers are always helping to develop our expertise and lab skills. The careers team are always pushing us to apply for placements, supporting us in every way: sessions dedicated to applying for placement roles(e.g. how to write CV, how to write cover letters, how to do well in interviews), face to face talks if you wish, sending emails that show what placements are available that you are interested in etc. There are lots of learning spaces such as the library, random learning spots on every floor (like small homebases), IT rooms available to everyone, and more. For the muslims, the students union building has ablution and praying areas for both men and women.
Good university. The environment is welcoming and the students are helpful. The content of work is challenging which I find obviously good as that’s what you want.
good uni but there is some problems with the staff
Studied PhD there. Had a good professional development a
A good university I would say. It’s really good for business and management courses. I haven’t availed their careers service much yet so I haven’t reviewed accurately.
Amazing university!! I’ve had so many opportunities to meet new people and I’m still meeting them in my second year of uni. When you need help from the university whether it’s from the student union or the library there is always someone available.
I am very impressed with Aston University - although it is quite a small campus, it is very friendly and the support you receive from anyone, is one of the best! From academic support to career and visa advice - beyond great. And the people are very friendly - cannot say that enough. Unfortunately I cannot comment on the clubs and societies and student union - because of the pandemic.
It’s been great, really enjoyed myself. Facilities e has been locked off but ite going well!
Wifi is terrible but the socialising scene is good
Great everything. Bad WiFi. Don’t like it.
Good university, wokldnt go anywhere else
Nice cosy campus, staff is helpful
Its good university, good department, nice and helpful teachers
Om hand if needed, can always chat to the student services
Amazing absolutely love the place
I'm very proud to attend Aston University. Their careers team were absolutely brilliant, they really do work so hard to ensure everyone has the best chance at securing a placement/graduate job! Aston's library is beautiful, the modules are interesting and I love studying there!
Did my MSc there and now doing my PhD. Great Uni
Nice friendly, close to city which is convenient
Amazing time here, the staff have made it really special. Little shout out to izaaq and Talisa!
Great friendly staff good experience. Shoutout izaac and talisa
Uni was fun, would come for that tbh
Good support from lecturers and practitioners
Aston University is a relatively good university it offers many different programs of study and offers professional career development. The university has many different clubs and societies to appeal to your interest. As well as a gym facility including swimming pool and facilities for many different sports to take part in. it is located reasonably close to local shopping areas such as bullring mall and other tourist areas.
As an international medical student the uni does not provide any financial support
The university is close to my accommodation.
Brilliant education, lovely campus
Amazing university to attend highly recommended
My time at Aston University overall was a good experience as there are many different societies to join. The students union is very helpful and are a good representation.
OLD FIRE STATION, DONT GO! Honestly, I'm genuinely telling you guys thinking about booking here to stop while you can. My boyfriend and I started the booking process earlier this year unfortunately and the staff have been disgusting. The staff have manipulated us by not giving us the full information of what we were getting into and we are ending up having to pay 5 grand more than what was agreed. I am pretty broke so I can't afford this and will have to think about changing my course to a different location. They mislead us, gave us vague information, didn't communicate the terms and essentially scammed us. Genuinely from my heart, this company has caused both our families so much stress, they only care about the money, they have not apologised once and they have been extremely unethical. You honestly don't want anything to do with this place because they took advantage of us and probably will to you. They don't care about you, they only care about the money.
Great uni. Lecturers always helpful. Very good career service for finding placements
brill uni, love the course im on, cant moan
Great university in terms of social life and facilities. There are a lot of different things you can do outside of your studies. Can't say the same about studies. Often it feels that nobody pays attention to students' issues with studies. Some modules have the same content but just different name and delivery. The careers services are amazing. Very helpful, running multiple events and workshops during the term time.
Aston is a great place to learn and have fun. Amazing teacher and people to be around.
Good university would recommend will have a great time here
Felt like they held the whole covid situation pretty well
Good uni, support could have been better in the pandemic.
Great university, exceeded my expectations. It could do with more library space/updated main building however I love the intimacy of campus and that everything is so close!
Hasn’t been so supportive during this time
enjoy my course, lots to do, good library facilities and on campus facilities
Lots of great support from everyone around. The facilities are brilliant with modern technology and aesthetics. It's a nice environment to study in and is mostly clean. Internet is very good and easy to access.
Excellent society’s and student union. More assistance required for careers
Good university,would go there again
Good facilities and teaching areas
Aston University is a very friendly and warming university. Staff and Students are great.
Facilities on campus are great and easy to use and get too, There is a lot of different study spaces on campus which is also great
Relatively small campus but good location
Aston is a very diverse university, it has such a vast support system for students.
The new buildings are good and modern looking
Aston has been a great experience im in my final year and have enjoyed it every part of it, its in a great city for students
Good university for Business courses, ideal location to the city centre!
Aston is an excellent learning environment both remotely and on campus
