Free, strong Wifi in all cardiff uni buildings is great. So many societies to choose from, I have joined a netball one. So fun and make lots of friends whilst playing games too. There is good career support here as you can go to student futures and get free career advice and feedback on your CV.

Excellent university but disappointed about so many things being cut off for JOMEC students like myself, for example the trip organised by the departments for students

I love cardiff uni. I love the student union but always wish it was cleaner, warmer and well lit a bit better - especially the area with the swings. it always has broken chairs and dirty tables making it hard to sit there and focus on studying or even socialising. overall, I love studying at Cardiff uni cux the people are so sweet and I've never come across so many societies at a uni before! the opportunities are endless and I'll make sure to have enough money next year so i can actually sign up to one!

Love the uni. Some of the facilities could use a bit of a refresh as they are quite outdated, but overall a great place to study!

Cardiff university is a great option with a lovely campus and lovely people. The campus is placed close to the park and the city centre which makes it easy to access for students and the student union is a great place to socialise and work
