Large and diverse campus, lots of social, food and revision spaces, and every single university employee has been so incredibly warm and motivating! Our careers team is incredible, I have access to so many opportunities due to them.

Simply put. The uni is getting worse while the prices rise. I do not think the opportunitys provided in any category are satisfactory for a uni of this size and age and at this price. Fix it. Do better.

University isn't that bad in terms, it's okay, it does however suck how you cannot get accommodation as a returning student and are forced to look for one yourself, if you've got no friends - good luck, if you don't have enough money for a studio or whatever - goodluck. Responses from lecturers aren't too bad either, location is quite cheap so it makes it easier to enjoy what the uni has to offer.
