" Small but decent campus with all the necessary facilities. The quality of teaching is alright and the course fees are too expensive. Would not really recommend this Uni unless there are no other options available elsewhere. "

" All my lecturers at James Cook University have been really helpful, patient, and approachable. One of the lecturers even told me that if I have any doubts, I could always let him know how he can help me in understanding the course materials. It is a relatively small campus with not many facilities. The school fees are also quite hefty. "

" Currently studying online and have had really good feedback from academic staff who are always happy to answer any questions. There are many resources available for online students, with lecturers and staff answering questions in a timely manner. I'd happily recommend James Cook University to anyone who is interested in starting their academic studies. Really supportive staff. "

" Overall is a good place for learning but expensive school fees. The lecturers and staff are friendly and approachable, always offering help to the students when needed. However, the school workload is great (at least for my course itself). "

" It is an overall great institution. Some subjects in psychology seemed disorganised given that they were either new or were subjected to a recent changeover in teaching staff. Some lecturers were not engaging/consistently good at teaching. Most, however, were fantastic. Another key issue is that the university is placing too much responsibility on too few staff, leaving the students with less help. This was only true for a select few subjects. The facilities are modern and enjoyable to use, however, it is hard to navigate the campus and the virtual map is not very useful. "
