My experience so far has been mixed. In 1st year I was mainly online due to covid and therefore found it incredibly difficult to properly meet people on my course. There were very few, if any, events promoted for people like me who don’t enjoy night clubs / heavy drinking. 2nd year has been much better. It was completely on campus, I started talking to more people and had someone to sit next to in my lectures / optional modules. The ‘Be part of it’ scheme was set up which significantly contributed to me not dropping out. This offers Northumbria students a lot of heavily discounted events throughout each term and aims for you to meet other students without the traditional student nightlife. The support from staff is excellent (specifically from my personal tutor) who has helped and supported me more than I can describe. The campus is very nice and close to the city centre. My course department has excellent facilities which makes the experience much better. read more

The facilities are great, the tutors are great, the social life is great as well as the opportunity for social life. However, I want to say, if there are no placements, then when making list of courses for addimissions for international students, please don't state advance practice. My honest thought. As I feel this is not true Thank you read more
