I was in a room which made my experience throughout uni not great . Laeticia the staff at unite helped me tremendously she is a star! She constantly helped me and kept me updated making sure everything was okay and even found me a new room to move into ! Ever since I’ve been happy and I owe it to her .
I had the privilege of being assisted by Laeticia from the student experience team. Her personalized attention and dedication were truly remarkable. She helped me review my case diligently. Her professionalism and commitment made a significant difference in resolving my situation. I highly recommend Laeticia for her exceptional service and support.
Good all around overall!!!!!!!

The location is best and staff is too good. 24 hours security is available. The Common rooms, cinema room, gym all things are there inside the accommodation which is good for a student to come to onyx.
Amazing facility, it's more fun and with great staff and security
The accommodation is great and the staff is so helpful and greets with the cookies and amenities.
The school really really cares about students.
I think the ONYX is very good.
Aston University is a great place to study for international students
Great food excellent food splendid food
It has been a great experience until now
Onyx is a great accommodation for anyone who likes socialising. The accommodation holds events for students to meet new people and make friends, as well as the best communal area to socialise and chill indoors. You get a lot for the price you’re paying, and everything is close to you and in walking distance. The staff at onyx are so kind and helpful, they remember names and faces and always do their best to help aswell as the security team. I’ve come back to onyx for my final year and it’s a really good decision, I enjoy living here a lot!
I have only stayed here for one day so I haven't explored all the facilities yet.
Aston is the best University because of it's location and also the student union
I dropped out of Aston halfway through year to study at BCU instead. Didn’t really find many friends and half the lectures were online which made it feel like there was no point in moving to Birmingham for uni. There were so many people on the course and in lecture halls that it was hard to contribute or interact during.
Great university for studying and provides a good environment for students
Lovely facilities and staff. Very spacious and good resources
Super close to the city centre. Loads of good study spaces and things to do.
Better internet. More individual building use. Better incentives to join clubs and events
Aston University is a reputable institution that focuses on prioritising your employability, they are not a Russell Group University but that is not everything! Aston University's prestige lies in its ability to get you employed in a sector and job you're happy with
Great place and experience living there
Really enjoyed my time at Aston. Had really good lecturers and a good experience
Good I like the uni it's good I like it
Brilliant university, but not a value for money as other processes are extremely slow
It’s great. Love the student union. Lecturers there are amazing. There is student support to contact.
Unstable internet, lack of study spaces, questionable approach to safety

Aston is a small-scale university. It's perfect if you don't want to get lost in the crowd. There is plenty of support on offer for students and the lecturers are always happy to take on feedback to improve the way they teach you.

Aston University truly allows international students to feel at most comfortable with one of the top of the shelf education system
It’s a good university to study at.
Good, can be improved by adding drinking water facility and additional student offers in the canteens as well as cafeterias etc.
Aston is a great University, there’s many events and activities posted around so that one can increase their social circle and just have general fun. The facilities in the school are also great and there’s many study spaces that are open 24/7 which is quite handy.
I'm liking the environment but the study material rid not helping me to understand the module. Guidance required and adaptation is very challenging!
Proud to study at Aston. It has fantastic facilities
