" Overall, the institution delivers a good academic program. The campus facilities are above many in the area, making it easy and comfortable to study. The GCU cafe was a highlight with affordable drinks better than other coffee chains. "

" The university is placed in the centre of Glasgow, next to a second university and also a FE college campus, this makes the area of the city very student oriented and a nice place to live. Staff in the school of HLS have an incredible range of expertise and experience. Staff spend a lot of time with students, and extra student support is renowned as some of the best available in Scotland. The university places a lot of importance on student feedback, and changes are regularly seen as a result of student surveys and the student union. Overall, the university is a nice and clean place to learn with great support networks and is well situated for wider student social life. "

" Good place to study. Feel that the university is quite small struggled to find places to sit and study. There are areas you can book but they are always booked out. There is a large cafe but the food is pretty bad. I would usually bring my own lunch. It’s great that they give away free period products in the female toilets. "

" I believe Glasgow Caledonian University is a great university to attend with excellent facilities and teaching staff. They offer a variety of different clubs depending on what you're interested in and have an on-campus gym and union. The university has well prepared me for leaving university and moving on into industry with lots of people from industry supporting us. "
