Being at UoP for the first month has been an amazing experience. The students and staff are friendly and helpful. The city buzzes with life and beauty. Being near the beach definitely is a tranquil and therapeutic experience. The facilities and resources are also plentiful. There is so much opportunity at the University of Plymouth. read more

Since joining the University of Plymouth, I’ve genuinely felt a sense of belonging here. The experience began on a high note with Welcome Week—a truly fantastic event filled with fun activities, chances to meet new friends, and helpful information to kickstart university life. The staff and lecturers are incredibly friendly and supportive, always ready to answer questions or provide guidance. The university places a strong emphasis on student mental well-being and health, which is incredibly reassuring. The Students’ Union also plays a huge role, organising events and offering academic and personal support. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, with a new campus centre park set to open soon, adding even more beauty to the university. The university is also deeply committed to career development, offering frequent programs, seminars, and networking events to connect students with internships, mentoring, and placement opportunities. All in all, it’s been a rewarding experience! read more

Sometimes books are only given to some students because not enough were bought. Sometimes there is nowhere to sit on campus that isn’t outside. There is not enough encouragement to attend social events. Social events are held way too late not enough careers advice. read more

I am extremely happy overall with the student service the University of Plymouth provides. The only criticism I have this year is the University wifi service which has been shocking this year. I understand we have a temporary issue and it will hopefully be resolved this week. read more
