university of Plymouth has been very welcoming as a new student, although daunting they have made this transition into further education smooth. All the staff are approachable and friendly, the library is comfortable and easy to navigate. All the univertsin buildings are very clean and well-cared for, the only down said is some seating in lecture theatres can be uncomfortable. There are a wide range of societies to chose from, and all very easy to join. read more

Plymouth University is located at Central point of the city, surrounded by various facilities such as stores, food outlets, accommodation and health services. Not only is it located at a central point for new students and boarding but it has numerous facilities that aid in support and building life in the UK. Various clubs and culture awareness is evident and welcoming for all!! Lectures are supportive and courses are clearly planned and executed. Inclusive and mindful practice evident in staff and support available for disabled students whom are very much able to enjoy and participate in events organised. Student support are tremendous and views are heard and relayed. Library access 24hours and resources to help improve assignments and help available to all. Great things are happening at the University of Plymouth. read more

Plymouth University has a welcoming environment and all the facilities there are brilliant. I couldn’t recommend it more to anyone. The only issue I can think of is that the clubs at the moment are struggling due to a decrease in funding from the student Union. This however is a minor issue in the grand scheme of things and I’m sure will improve in the coming years. read more
