The environment is very good, the room is particularly satisfied, especially the large French Windows, which are very few in the UK, the price is not high, and the floor is very high, the scenery is very good, and the reception attitude is good

It’s great, good facilities and a great place to study
Brilliant atmosphere and a very cheap city to live in with good nightlife. Good study facilities open 24/7 and fast wifi
The university and campus is good. But the connectivity and transportation network is really poor in the city.
The University has good infrastructure and student facilities
Having a very great experience till now ...
The facilities at the university are good. Could have better variety and more affordable meals at the student cafes and canteens.
Not much to say really. I'm happy here
Campus close to the centre, easy access, really good student union
Cardiff is good all round. The Student Union is amazing and supportive, putting on lots of events to make your time here fun. There is a wide range of clubs and societies and there is also lots of academic support. The buildings and facilities are good, with the new centre for student life adding lots of modern study spaces.
It is good uni with great teachers but it should have more activities for people to socialise with each other from diff campuses as I feel my building is a bit segregated
The University has helped me in a huge amount of ways in every aspect of my life. I am grateful for every part of university. They have made my academic life more exciting.
Very helpful staff to assist me for my first year, the students are friendly as well
Great area. Shame that all the subjects are split into separate areas of Cardiff though. Staff are always very friendly and we are given access to all the facilities we need.
Very good university, campus facilities are amazing.
A good university with a wide range of course
Great working stuff, the facilities are new and easy to access. Everyone is willing to help and the services that the university provides are rich
Chose Zenith by accident over a year ago, but I’ve never regretted it since! Coming to a new country as a student was frightening by the staff and the people here always made me feel like I belonged here. I made some of my best friends here and whenever I needed help with something the staff would always be kind, especially Lauren,Javi,Dan and Angela! The social spaces are always lively and the study rooms have AC and are spacious, thank you Zenith !
It’s good be a part this university
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff is amazing. Every staff member I encountered,from check- in to the cleaning staff were delightful and eager to help.They went over and beyond to help ,make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this accommodation for students. Thank you
such a friendly uni and amazing city :)
Everyone is super welcoming and friendly
Lovely location, student housing lacks sometimes but it's made up for in the fact you're in such a great city.
Cardiff University offers variety of courses for graduate and post graduate level with well equipped infrastructure facilities and work environment. It has been an amazing experience for me as an international student to study.
Awesome experience and highly recommended!
Lovely university, great social/nightlife in the city. Met amazing people
Good. Good course and good facilities
Pre-sessional English course in Deri house was good but the facilities were really poor
The best! The course is different and challenging yet interesting and aids professional and personal development
在这个学校经历了挺好的一年，同学很友好，环境很优美啊啊啊啊啊
很愉快的一年，老师同学都很友好，上学也很方便，学校很漂亮，建筑很好看。
I loved my time at Cardiff university. I had made many friends and memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life
Cathays Campus has facilities located almost throughout Cardiff city centre, some of which are open long hours for self-directed study. Due to the epidemic, during the year I studied here, both online and offline courses were adopted. Later, students studying here may have more frequent contact with faculty members. On the whole, the school has complete facilities, beautiful environment and serious and responsible teachers, which can provide a good learning atmosphere. In addition, the school gift shop is located under the Student Union building, so those who like to collect souvenirs may keep an eye out.
Cardiff university is the best. Couldn’t have asked for a better one. Thanks
I love this university. I’m doing clinical optometry at the School of Optometry and Vision And the staff is amazing and i love the academic level, TOP ONE!
环境很好很干净，公寓设施齐全，工作人员很有耐心很热情，地理位置优越
非常好的的环境。非常好的教学资源，学校位置也非常的方便。学校的工作人员和老师也很友善
Amazing experience at this university
Facilities are average with the libraries being the main resource that I personally use however the wi-fi in all of the campuses s good. The career services are fairly poor - they advertise placements online but provide no guidance onwards. The best way to describe it is that they drop you into the deep end and hope you float
Very friendly staff - I have never felt homesick. Central to almost every cuisine possible
Good university school of engineering seems a bit shabby, but the professors and teaching staff have all been really helpful
The university is brilliant for university and that provide brilliant support for queer students too :)
Campus is slightly outdated but has all the recquired facilities and is easy to navigate through. Wide range of clubs and societies are available, However, Due to COVID, the experience wasn't as engaging or nice as it usually is. The students union is full of amenities and provides any help needed. Several different programs as well as advice teams are available for future career progression.
Good facilities and campus. Not much to complain about.
Love Cardiff University. Good and friendly environment, decent facilities. I am enjoying my time here at Cardiff.
good university and best Student union
I’ve really loved being at Cardiff as a postgrad student. It’s a beautiful campus in a great city, and all of my professors in the WSA have been fantastic. Definitely would recommend!
The staff named Tammy and Todd are very friendly and willing to help each other.The atmosphere is very nice here
Recommended and very well university. Good stuff
Pretty school, staff are nice and kind.
Good experience overall. Would recommend to anyone.
Cardiff university is one of the best institute consisting the best professors. I'm a master's student and the experience of studying in Cardiff university is impeccable.
It’s an amazing place to plan your long term stay.
Meh uni... not amazing but not awful either
the university is good in teaching and service of student union. while it's lack of sufficient campus facilities and environment for students to enjoy their study there
I didn't experience much during the first and second year due to covid but the general experience was nice
Lovely city to live at where you could enjoy a lot of things in town
The professors and staff are nice and helpful. There are a lot of societies for students to join. The building facilities are a bit old but sufficient.
The uni staff are nice in general. A few part time job and placement opportunities. However, lack of useful career advice and guidance towards life after uni.
I have had a fantastic time in Cardiff
A very welcoming place of study with mostly very helpful lecturers and staff.
The university provides with a lot of good learning resources.
地理位置好，交通便利，基础设施好，前台也很棒，距离学校也很近
The reception is very nice and kind.
Welcoming environment with great staff
The college environment is very good, and the teachers are very friendly. Cardiff has a lower cost of living than England, which is also an advantage for international students. I love here.
The classroom is beautiful. And my tutor help me a lot to do a design.
Best student accommodation Ive every lived in!! Zenith has a rooftop bar perfect for sunset lovers and golden hours it also has a game area, a cinema and perfect study spaces overall the facilities are amazing! Location wise its aprox a 5-8 min walk to town and 10-15min to Cardiff Bay, however, you have a supermarket right next door to Zenith and we are also offered bicycles to explore around :) Zenith staff regularly organises activities such as movie nights allowing us to choose the movies or basketball tournaments and much much more.. The staff is great, always helping out and making us have the best experience (especially Angela, always so friendly and helpful). I love the Zenith experience and Very much recommend! Thank you Zenith, will miss you all!
Top class uni. Like every other uni it’s really what you make of it. But the facilities support you and make you enjoy your experience. The staff are always striking though!
Great staff, lovely environment
Lovely place to study, great tutor and flexible tutorials.
It is great. I am finishing this year!
I have experienced one semester's online course. I feel the teachers are good. I wish there are more group assessment
As an international student, the school has given me a lot of help and support in life. The school also provides convenient learning environment with good facilities. At the same time, the school also provided me with effective career guidance.
Perfect connection for studying and entertainment throughout my time here.
Great experience studying at Cardiff University
I love it here! Lots of support
Good healthcare campus with facilities for working. Not very modern or many places for indoor eating during breaks
前台姐姐是非常nice的人 可好了 什么事跟她说都可以得到及时的反馈
Feels proud and great to be the part of Cardiff University as a student. Exploring so many new things. Learning is made so easy with all the availabilities provided by cardiff University.
Very good uni. Would recommend. City is lovely, very active every day of the week.
Good, facilities include what’s needed for my course and are very accessible
Great experience in one of the top universities in England. I made friends for life and I took every good thing this university had to offer me.
Every day in every way Cardiff University with all of its staff try to provide the students with the best university life in terms of lectures, facilities, clubs, employability, ...etc.
Best place to study. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
Great environment to learn. I have finished my masters at Cardiff University and currently doing my PhD. Can’t ask for more.
I'm currently studying my final year at the school of earth sciences at Cardiff University, and have nothing but respect for my tutors and the staff there, they've all worked so hard to get the best out of us. But I go to Cardiff University despite Cardiff Universities best efforts. They consistently make idiotic decisions designed to make life harder for the students currently studying. As far as I'm aware, once they have your money the couldn't care less about the health and wellbeing of it's students. Unless like me they do a course you really want to study, that nowhere else provides, go to a better university that respects it's students.
I have had a brilliant time at Cardiff University. Cardiff is a brilliant city and there is always something going on! Would recommend Cardiff Uni to anyone.
Cardiff University is a brilliant place and offers a great range of facilities.
I had an outstanding experience. The university is always there to support and help. There are many different facilities for everyone to enjoy, socialise, and study. It is also close to the city center which is another perk. SU has various events. There is help for your career journey and the university cares about inclusion and equality. The only bad thing I could mention is that the wifi had some issues sometimes but that was on rare occasions. Overall, I would recommend it.
Great teaching resources, you can learn a lot of useful knowledge here, the teachers are very warm and willing to help you
friendly and welcoming university.
Very good. We will continue live here next year.
Wonderful university. Really feel supported and educated. I am currently studying in BEng of Architectural Engineering. The filed trip is really wonderful. Learned a lot from it. Nice staff also, really supported.
大学挺好的，大学同学挺好的，大学老师挺好的，大学校园挺好的，就都挺好的
Good experience so far. Our department has been refurbished recently, so there was construction happening most of my time there.
Very safe, nice environment, staff is serious and responsible, I enjoyed staying at crown place
Cardiff university is the best!!!
Difficult to compare with other universities as I haven't been to others
Good school and teachers. It's a very good school with very kindly teachers and students. The library was open and full of seats. The teaching facilities are also very advanced
I feel I learn a lot from my courses. People here are all friendly and willing to help me since English is not my first language. I've really appreciated it!
