They’re nice and giving but I believe that it can always be improved

Well I like the life I created but I just don’t like how unreliable the transport is from where I live although it’s something that the uni probably can’t help with

Even though the tuition fees are crazy expensive, i like how our SU is providing a student pantry or other ways to financially help the students

It’s okay because I only get it when I ask for it anyway

I don’t live in university accommodation since it’s expensive but I’ve heard that it’s okay depending on who you’re staying with. The university facility is really nice though so I like it but I hope that they can provide free hot water.

Most of my tutors are really nice and they always reply to my emails. There is also a lot of group work that’s hard because I prefer to study on my own to get a better grade.
