I have really enjoyed staying here. The location is brilliant, within easy reach of the university and local supermarkets. My studio is clean, well-equipped and quiet, which suits my study perfectly. The reception team are friendly and responsive; maintenance requests get sorted quickly. Bills are all included, the Wi‑Fi is stable, and the secure building gives me peace of mind as an international student. I would happily recommend this accommodation to other students coming to Glasgow. read more

An interesting course for those who like analysing both text and film. Some lecturers have not been the best at explaining the 'film' section of the course. All in all, I am enjoying my studies in this course and definitely prefer it to my English modules. read more

Comparative Literature/English Literature, MA Hons FullTime
This is a great course. It’s full on, with a lot of reading, but it’s enjoyable still. My tutors are responsive and supportive and we cover a wide range of topics including ecocriticism which is my personal favourite. There are creative writing opportunities available to EngLit students and the SMLC offers courses school-wide which CompLit students can take if they’re interested, including languages and courses like Text/Image Culture which I am enjoying currently. read more
