 " It's a well connect university, very sociable. Everyone seems to know everyone - as it is very small. Feel like the level of teaching could be better though, as I think they could have done modules that are more exciting and interesting to a range of people. "

 " The college system is good. It makes it easy to make friends and get involved in clubs and societies. The social scene is good. The place is lovely. Unfortunately, there is not much mixing between students and locals. There are a lot of the same people that go to Durham, it's not diverse, and the conversations can be boring. But you'll make some good friends if you do things you like. "

 " Beautiful city and nice school. College system is interesting for international students. Be wise to pick the college which meet the characteristics of your self. And the catering and accommodation are needed to be concern while applying the college. For undergraduate, it is recommended to join sports team or club. No matter the college or school club, it all enrich the life in the school life. For postgraduate student, make wise choice for attaining the event. "

 " Generally it's good to study in Durham University. I feel safe and included in the study communities.  However the student support system isn't really helpful and it takes ages for them to really understand your situation or help you out. "

 " Generally, a good uni, attendance is recorded. I felt safe on campus. There is a lack of computers and parking spaces. I have not yet graduated so I cannot comment on job opportunities. I did not attend any clubs and societies, however, I have heard that there are plenty. "
