Very good experience,with big sport park
NUA is okay. Not too used to it because we are barely in class so I'm just filling this in so I can review my student halls.
Tutors are always helpful. There are so many facilities around to help with research or general interest in subjects.
Great university, I found that there isn’t a lot of choice of clubs/ societies which is the only downside.
Okay but covid ruined it. Communication was poor
Choosing NUA was definitely the right choice for me. The campus is nice and the city is the perfect blend of homely and walkable together with lots to do and see.
Campus is good, with a range of facilities such as 3D workshops and print rooms. However, not many Students union activities and very limited spaces on the activities they occasionally put on.
The university is always clean and the facilities provided are very good
NUA as a university is good for those who want to pursue a career in the arts, it’s got a good student support system, but would be better if the uni curriculum and how work is assessed and should be done is not so clear for those in first year
Wide range and opportunities and experience available to all students, as well as guidance.
Since covid, there have been significantly fewer teaching hours which I'm not too happy with especially since we're not getting a partial refund for last year.
I’ve had a lovely experience at nua since I started last September. I’m a first year and mainly use guntons building along with st stephens, there’s everything you could possibly need to aid your study’s
Absolutely love the uni and the facilities. Would say that I wanted help on my essay and took weeks for a reply which wasn’t useful.

Courses focus on developing creative process. Building skills is expected to be largely self-driven within assigned projects. Career preparation is very good.
doesn’t appear to be very much like other universities
Such a lovely team. I have been residing at PFH since September 2020. Rooms are incredibly comfy and well soundproofed if you are keen on. I know it is annoying to get distracted while studying. Especially this year, as students mostly had online sessions. Internet is 10 out of 10. Many thanks to the PFH team for such a cosy atmosphere!
A good university, online learning not being the best but they tried to do what they could
Loved it here I just haven’t joined any of the clubs /SU but there aren’t many that interest me. (Limited selection)
Great supportive tutors with a great understanding of the industry. I study games art and design and we have a discord server dedicated to helping each other out and spreading news, the server contains all years from 1 through to masters, it also contains alumni and people in the industry. Would definitely recommend NUA
Love it ! Fantastic campus and great memories!
The University is such a nice place to be, the tutors are all friendly and well versed in there professions. The facilities that are provided are on the whole ok its just there isn't enough of them, and the Wifi is slower then a slow thing. Due to the fact that it is a small campus in the city centre you are always close to shops and services, and it gives the university much more diversity in its interaction with the city.
I think NUA is great if you use the facilities and use what is given to you. The courses are quite independent so if you want someone to hold your hand it's probably not the best.
Covid left us all pretty dead in the water. A select few tutors were absolute life savers overall, and the students came together to make sure we had big social spaces online at the very least.
Being able to access the buildings and spaces is extremely helpful for getting different parts of projects completed. There were a lot of fun clubs going in my first year, however, because a lot of them are run by students, they don't always last, unless they are taken over. There are always a lot of events put on by the student union, which is a great way to get to try different disciplines and step out of your comfort zone.
Good staff and tutors. Very helpful. Room for more societies and clubs.
Not much help with mental health
Really good university! The facilities are amazing and staff are so helpful!
NUA has great facilities all across campus, with just about anything needed to complete your work, including industry standard materials and software. One thing that I really love about this university is that it really prioritises the health and well-being of its students, and not just grades, offering a great support network with links to organisations that can provide specialist help.
Lots of good course options, mental health, future and course support and friendly, helpful staff! Very good location, facilities etc
The NUA campus is really accessible and in a lovely part of Norwich, close to a bunch of really nice cafes and shops for lunch!
There are a lot of fun things to do at NUA. The staff are friendly and the campus being directly in town makes it very easy to get to being just a short walk from most accommodations in town.
NUA is a great University for anyone with heart for art. The campus is sprawled throughout Norwich but all within a short walk of each of the buildings, the facilities are great and can appeal to every artists needs. There is always someone who is willing to help whether that be your course tutor or the amazing student support team that can help you if your having issues.
Absolutely amazing first experience in a university. Even if there was a pandemic going on the university adapted my course in an amazing way meaning it still felt like I was going in physically.
NUA is a great and helpful university full of tutors that are not only engaging but also passionate about the subjects they teach. The social spaces are quite small however they always fun to be in with comfortable setting and study areas. I've participated primarily withing the LGBTQ+ Society and the Board Games Society, both of which have remained active throughout lockdowns providing support and entertainment which was extremely helpful.
NUA has really helped with broadening my ideas in art and I have met a great number of diverse people.
Lovely University with friendly and helpful staff
This university has been instrumental in my professional practice and personal growth - I will forever owe NUA for their support over the years and I thank them for making me into the person I need to be for the "real world"
A lot more independent learning than thought
Staffs are really friendly tutors are the best.
A chill university experience, a good change from a campus uni where the lecturers are genuine people and they’re better friends instead of teachers
Its a great up and coming university
The printing facilities are great! NUA is a friendly and creative environment with so many opportunities.
The student union are great and have some good events
Few clubs and societies so it is very had to become social with people. Never heard anything from the careers or the student union after freshers.
Very beautiful and great facilities
All of NUA’s buildings are repurposed historic structures. The exteriors are the same as you’ll see through the rest of Norwich (beautiful brick with an artistic city centre flare) but the insides are all completely modern. Every building offers NUA’s free wifi, which always works very well. The Students Union is very active in the University. They run many activities throughout the year including all the events provided for Freshers Week. The societies within the SU are also a flourishing culture. There’s a club/society for everyone, and if there isn’t then the SU has a simple process to facilitate you starting your own.
At NUA, high quality printing services are available at use. From finishing techniques such as embossing and foiling to booklet printing.
Brilliant small university environment, everyone is friendly and it's a lovely place to study. Great facilities and opportunities plus Norwich is beautiful and the university is centrally located which is excellent.
