Course
Brunel Campus has to be one of the best. It's lively fun and there's always something going on. I think the clubs and societies are as good as the people who run them and they're usually quite passionate about their own clubs. My own experience with the Students Union has been really helpful, there's also a bunch of other services for all kinds of situations where you'd need help, like personal issues, or study groups, free Brunel therapy. The job office is pretty awesome, there's also online help where you can look at vacancies, as well as a volunteering section. So internet/Wi-fi is interesting, Wi-fi can be a bit dodgy if you're on the edges of campus or sometimes on the very side rooms of Fleming, most places it's pretty strong and stable. Internet connections established by ethernet cable is always really good, I don't actually remember internet dropping at all in the dorms when it's connected. All in all, the atmosphere over here is amazing, I really enjoyed my course as well.

Accommodation
Living with univeristy friends, next to the univeristy, near a main supermarket (Lidl), about 0.3 miles away from the middle of campus, a 15 minute walk, I would not choose to live there again due to the small house/room and the inconvenience of separate bills, I prefer halls residence on campus due to convenience and maintenance.

Accommodation
As I had previously lived in halls of residence on campus the process was simple. I had to sign in, choose my halls preferences and then pay a booking fee deposit of £350, and also choose who I'd like to live with if that was a preferred preference

Accommodation
I lived in a shared student house with 7 other students, it is in residentual area however there is other student houses around as it is around 10 mins from campus. Its also very close to town where the shops, clubs and transport links are. It works out cheaper to live in a house then on campus and was an overall good and fun experience living with friends.
