 " Very welcoming, the atmosphere is very positive and the majority of lecturers were amazing. There was informative information provided in the module slides. I especially enjoyed marketing modules and how creative and expressive we could have been. The communication among students and lecturers helped me to get more than knowledge here. It was an experience that helped me to grow as a personality. "

 " Its' ok, depends on what course you take. The scene here isn't very good. I am overall happy with my course choice and the academic tutors. I found it difficult to find friends or maintain friendships which were unusual because everywhere else I have been it's been quite easy. It's easier to fit in depending on what you wear and things like that. I think the psychology experience is a good one but if you go here for other things like clubbing and nice scenery then it's not that great. That being said, everyone is different and I think it comes down to personal preference and the type of person you are. You should always check out the university yourself before attending and maybe rely on your opinions as everyone's opinion is different. "
