" The Campus is very easy to navigate and find where you need to be. The library has a good variation of study areas with more than adequate computer numbers. The student union provides a great place to break up a university day and get some affordable food without having to go far off campus. All lecturers are very high level in their field and knowledgeable, in my experiences they are all very approachable and there to help whenever you need and no matter what the problem is. "

" As I approach finishing my fourth year of university, I can say I am sad to be leaving. The friends I have made during my time here will be lifelong, and the experiences I have undertaken will certainly guide me in my future career and possibly further study if I decide to complete a master’s degree. I cannot complain about the staff I have encountered at Northumbria. They have always been willing to help and support students from my experience. I would recommend this university to anyone who wants to study in the North East of England. "

" The art facilities are really good and it’s great having studio space to work in. The lecturers are supportive and approachable. I’ve found it a bit difficult at times to build close friendships, but that’s more personal than anything else. Overall it’s been a positive experience so far. "

" Overall the university is lively and comforting, with staff who are helpful and aim to getting you the correct support and best grades. The university check up on me regularly and ask me how I'm doing and if I need help academically or even mentally. They are supportive and ensure all information is easy to access if we are struggling. "
