I enjoy my university but they have recently moved from the library being open 24 hours to limited times. This is unacceptable as a student because the tuition fees have gone up but we have less facilities. It is a nice campus but more shops or food spots would've been ideal

Singleton campus has a lot of character and feels quite spacious, plenty of outdoor seating and also indoor. Plenty of options for food and an on campus shop. The campus has a fairly simple design that makes it easy to navigate, with plenty of maps around the campus to aid even more. Right next to the beach, with very easy access making it great to plan a day out to the beach with friends and a club on campus to carry on into the night. Singleton campus is a fantastic place to study while also having great travel routes directly to town via bus.

By hyperc4r On 26th November 25 verified Verified student

Medical school faculty is really enthusiastic. But in my opinion except for fresher's week there's not much opportunity/not enough information on signing up to new clubs/societies. Still, the sports and socs I do now are good and allow me to connect with like-minded people. Signal and wifi connection is a bit of a headache on both Bay and Singleton Campuses, and my biggest issue is the fact that Swansea Uni is a 'green' uni but there is very poor public transport links between city centre/both campuses PLUS bringing your own car is very difficult to manage- either parking is expensive, or you risk getting tickets in exchange for possibly free but unsecure parking. If your campuses are going to be that far away from each other, the transport links HAVE to be more robust. Excluding that, so far it's a good start to University life in Swansea- definitely an underrated and underappreciated university, and personally I think Swansea medical school is shaping up to be really special.
