Campus is beautiful, commonly know as Hogwarts, main arts is where the 24 hour library is. The main lecture theatres are also there. The sports centre Calnofan Brailsford is a state of the art new facility which is very nice. There are loads of club's and societies which are all free to join, these range from a huge variety of sports club to board games society, zoology society, orchestra and many others. Students union is good, they organise lots of event for students. Careers service is excellent, the uni offers the Bangor Employability Award which looks great on CV's. The internet is usually good but occasionally temperamental in halls.
Bangor University has progressed over my time here, now offering excellent facilities. In particular, an amazing sports complex, which even though brand new, with lots of investment into, is still free for sports clubs to have free sessions in. All clubs and societies are free to join and be a member of, which encourages social interaction and does not limit activities or friendship groups or opportunities for your time in Bangor.
Absolutely brilliant location, there's a big choice of things to do every day even in a small town, the course is great, the facilities are brilliant, and it all feels very cosy and friendly.
Fantastic facilities - the new music practice rooms are great!
Brilliant uni, definitely chose the right place
Can't fault anything about the campus, there's a strong sense of a small community in each of the villages
Great university in an outstanding location. The fact it's not a big city may deter some people but it's perfect for me.
an absolutely fantastic university, i cant praise it highly enough. the only flaw is the iffy wifi / internet
Wouldn't choose anywhere else to study
Excellent university, great facilities, perfect location. Staff are very friendly. Job at the end. What more can you wish for?
Bangor boasts an array of free sports clubs and has won national awards for them. They are in constant contact with prospective employers and aim to help all those that need it
For a small university it really produces and presents itself and I'm glad I chose this university
Had a great experience at Bangor University. So many opportunities! I had an incredible three years, 100% recommend for all courses. Such a great place to study, great people, great staff, great atmosphere. Very glad I chose Bangor as my institute of education!
Great uni, close knit student community it'll be impossible not to make any friends
Best Uni you could ever go to, has everything and is in a good place with the best kind of clubs all around :)
Best university experience ever!
I've just finished first year and absolutely love Bangor University. The staff are very helpful, both in my school and around the university in general. My school are very helpful and are one of the best in the country being taught by world class lecturers and taking part in internationally recognised research. The location is amazing, you can climb Snowdon and goto the beach in the same day. Halls are nice, clean, modern, good quality. Wifi is good, sometimes slow but only during the evenings when everyone is using the internet to download/stream music, movies and TV which is understandable.
Awesome university. The lecturers are really good and the lectures themselves are interesting. Campus is spectacular, beside the straits. Really good
Bangor is a little bubble - it's a great uni - it's set in a gorgeous part of the world and in so so happy to be there
All round fantastic university. Brilliant attention to students, from academic to social life. University and local atmosphere is so well balanced and so very welcoming.
The staff make the university. They are caring and always reply quickly to emails or meetings. Feedback is vast and help is vast. The course is varied and interesting, with teaching to suit all tastes. I would definitely recommend this university to anyone. I always remember why I chose this university. I was told on an open day that any university can get a first degree out of A grade A level students but it takes something special to get a first degree from B/C A level students. They have lived up to this.
Had an amazing first year and can't wait to go back!
Great teaching on the whole, very friendly! Currently having new accommodation and arts building. My course was amazing with accreditation and excellent research project options for my course.
the best and most surprising year of my life, can believe the student community everything I could have wished for and more! Bring on the next two years!
Great experiences available, being a welsh student there is plenty offered to take part in or do with JMJ or the welsh society
It's beautiful, in a beautiful place and the staff and students are wonderful
Bangor university is a amazing place to study, not only is it in a beautiful location but the lecturers have a real passion for their subjects
Best place you could ever go to
Beautiful surroundings, can't go wrong when your uni looks like hogwarts!
The societies are fantastic and the fact they are all free makes it even better. Mostly a really nice atmosphere and I really enjoy my course. The opportunities for work experience are. Bit thin though
My time at Bangor university has been incredible, from the lectures to the people I have met, I couldn't of wished for a better university experience!
Having had the best three years f my life Bangor was a great university and an amazing Welsh halls and Welsh Society.
It's a nice place, but facilities need updating and there could be a better students union...
Bangor is a uni city! Literally a city full of students! You can bump into about 5 people you know just walking to the shops! This means it's such a nice experience of knowing everyone and now feeling lost! It's brilliant
The university is situated in beautiful surroundings and the staff and lecturers are always there to support us with anything!
Bangor is an incredible university, and I feel so privileged to have the opportunity to study there.
I have absolutely loved being at Bangor, so much so I don't want to leave and taking every chance I can to stay. I also met the most amazing people here including my boyfriend of 3 years. Bangor has changed my life for the better!
Amazing little university which is extremely friendly ! Course, facilities and location are fantastic. Would definitely recommend
So much help on offer to students on all topics of student life!
Best year of my life has just passed in Bangor uni, tried sonny things I've never tried before, and nearly all where free! Being a terrible stress head I had amazing support fromy tutor, and halls where very helpful when I decided to move in with people on my course, I'm itching to get back for second year!
Met amazing people done amazing things
Brilliant university lectures always willing to help, halls are lovely great town
I really enjoy completing my course with Bangor university. The staff are flexible and reallt supportive. the facilities are always improving and I have never struggled to find assistance when required
Bangor is amazing! Not much to do out the way of societies and internet which works rarely, but otherwise all around great place
Campus is brilliant, everything you need and more! Clubs and society's are free and there's something for everyone! Wifi is decent 95% of the time! IT inform us when wifi is going to go off or Uni sites will be down and how long for!
The university is amazing, has reviewed and been nominated for an abundance of reviews for it's quality of teaching, facilities and importantly; student satisfaction! I wasn't sure about living away to study and had just turned 18 so was very unsettled, but this is a very close-knit and homely uni! You are almost forced to make friends as there are so many similar people around the 'city' is dominated by students! There is a huge focus on students, and tuition fees are well spend and put back into things beneficial ti students like free language courses and stable services and new facilities. Don't be out of by it being in Wales, students from other parts of the UK/ world will not feel left out as the culture is so diverse and the Welsh culture isn't dominant there. Hardly anyone speaks the language and everyone is made welcome!
Not a great deal of facilities. The residential campus is nice and clean. The internet spans the whole of the city but is relatively weak and slow at times. The Students Union is unique in that it hardly even exists. The main university staff are good, staff in my particular school are excellent. There is a wide range of clubs and societies, although they are free to join some require payment to participate (Snow sports for example). There is not a lot to do if you are bored and want to do something, the nightclubs are average but there is a wide range of bars, some of which are a little weird but there are a couple of good ones.
An excellent university that I would recommend to everyone
Best university in the UK, friendly atmosphere and everyone is kind and helpful.
