Student Review: 1 /5

I've had the worst three years of my entire life here. This is the worst uni I have ever been to (I've been to a few). Regularly lecturers don't turn up to lectures or meetings. Time table changes last minute (including taking away our 6 weeks summer holiday), no one replies to emails. My dissertation, I got told to do a certain topic by staff then 6 days before the deadline they said i could no longer do the topic then all the staff on the module went on annual leave for a week until the deadline had passed. No support, no one emails back, they just make life difficult.

Uclan is a really good university, everyone at the university is caring and understanding, no matter if it's your lecturers or your peers. When your at uclan you also feel like you as the student are put first as all lecturers and staff try to do what's best for you.

The campus is easy to get around, the clubs and societies are cheap and fun to join. The Student Union building has a nice shop which is relatively cheap, also with a bar that does fun stuff on certain nights (Tuesday Karaoke is a favourite of mine). Didn't look into the Careers service but I heard good things. Internet/Wi-fi is fine, but depending we did have it go out a few times because of road works close by or something.

I've not taken part in the careers services or societies so can't really comment on them but the students Union hosts lots of fun interesting events and serve vegan food (though it often sells out). The internet generally works pretty well sometimes a bit slow but I'll take it over no WiFi. The buildings are all generally pretty well looked after and there are a lot of new/modern looking buildings but some of the older buildings have small lifts that are a bit of a tight squeeze for wheelchair users. Definitely recommend the gym as it's free for students and has a cardio room that's good for working out in if you're self conscious.

I loved doing my computing bachelors degree here. I disagree with some of the reviews on here, the lecturers on the computing degree I did mainly had or were working towards PhD. Tge quality if teaching in my school is very good. The 4 week challenge in the first year is a brilliant starter. I have studied a masters here and I would highly recommend it.

I am very disappointed and think it's strange that students who came for me for advice on the BSc Hons in Health and social care at Burnley in 2017 achieved higher grades than me. The teachers didn't have any time for some students in my opinion they persistently failed me because they didn't like me. I'm now unemployed and doubt I will never work again.

If you hold unpopular/politically incorrect views, this Uni is not for you I just had a friend kicked out of this academia because had a opinion... That halal slaughter was barbaric Instead of challenging his opinion like how any Uni should do so students can learn to debate views they disagree with, they kicked him out, saying that they had "serious concerns about his ability to engage with his course and his cohort in a way that avoids perceptions of harassment by others" If you value free speech, this Uni is best avoided

I recently studied the BSc Hons in Health and Social Care at Burnley and in my opinion the support was terrible, teachers gave me extremely low marks for good work, emails were ignored and it resulted in me being unable to find a job and not having a grade high enough for entry on to a Masters degree.

I undertook my degree in English Literature and the tutor Dr Richard Walker was hardly ever there. It is absolutely disgusting the amount of money I now owe to SLC when my teacher was always off sick; often only learning this after trudging across campus to find a pathetic note on a door. Now, ten years later, I am hugely indebted and without employment. I wonder if it has anything to do with such disgraceful treatment at the hands of my university.

The uni has 2 different free WiFi’s, so when one drops out (which they do) you can switch to the other and not waste your data. There are plenty of shops and places to buy lunch, however they can be expensive for what you end up getting. The library is brilliant, with bookable group study rooms so you can discuss the course content with friends. All the study rooms have whiteboards, computers and screens but you have to buy your own pen. Don’t buy it from the library, the price is ridiculous for a single whiteboard pen. The student union is good, it has a cafe and several shops, and also an amazon locker.

Started at UCLan in september 2017 and realised it wasn't for me and that I'd rather drop out early and take a gap year and work my ass off. Then found out I have to pay 2,500 gbp to UCLan (out of the 9,000 for an entire year) for the 2 weeks I went there..? Turns out this is hidden in the t&c's and I even looked around and no other uni does this?! So basically if you go to UCLan and want to drop out do it in the first week lol - which is before you can see if you like the course. A complete scam.

The fact that everything on campus is so close together is especially good for those in the first year and are wanting to go from their accommodation to their lectures quickly! The student union has everything you need and the staff in the centres are all really friendly.

Awful university. My course lecturers were shockingly unpunctual and never turned up, when they did they cut 2 hour lectures by almost 1 hour every time, and we finished 1 hour lectures within the first half hour, it made me wonder what I was paying for. I lived with people who studied different courses and they had a similar issue within the physics and maths courses. Facilities are okay but very open to the public so if you like being asked by the homeless for money everyday this is the university for you.

The campus is integrated with the city, so there is always a pub between your lectures for that desperately needed pint. The library is 24/7 and has plenty of quite and group study spaces. The buildings are well heated and most have been refurbed or due one soon. The university offers a great service for students in the PR1/2 post codes where they will take you home free of charge after dark, so late night study sessions in the library are good to go. Clubs and societies is an issue also linked with the union. The union has been a complete disappointment for me. They are poor communicators, have rubbish facilities and offer boring activities which only a small percentage of students engage in. People have little faith in uclan su, especially now that they're venue is totally rubbish and an absolutely rip off. Careers centre is great for CV support and student based jobs but there is not enough to go round. Probably not their fault! Internet is super fast and everywhere!
