I loved my time at this university. The place during the summer and spring is like out of a movie and it has a very central location so everything is closely accessible to students ie. the city centre, the students union, the centre for student life, 4 main libraries and Bute park are all at a 30 minute walk from each other!!

Cardiff is a city uni that feels more like a Camus uni. The university buildings are all very close together which makes navigating around quite easy. However the student accommodation can be quite far away. I have been put in Ty pont haearn which it quite a far distance away from the rest of the student accommodation. I feel as though if you are not in one of the Talybont residences it can be quite difficult to make friends within the university.

I’ve joined many societies and had the chance to go to many events where I’ve met amazing people who I speak to regularly now. I’ve been automatically connected to Eduroam in every building I’ve gone to as well and it hasn’t been a hassle which is great.

As a current international student studying in Cardiff University, I must say that it offers a fantastic student experience, blending academics with a vibrant city life. Its diverse and high-quality programs are taught by passionate experts, fostering critical thinking and engagement. Beyond academics, the student union offers a wealth of societies and opportunities for personal growth. The lively city of Cardiff provides with a rich cultural backdrop, as it is the capital of Wales and offers a student friendly environment; the main reason I chose Cardiff in the first plac3e. I personally feel that it is an excellent choice for those seeking a rewarding and well-rounding university experience.
