University for the Creative Arts

Accommodation

I live in sandy hill which is popular among students. It's a 35 minute walk to uni but the uni have very limited accommodation, some first years don't even get into halls so a lot of people choose here. My house is very nice but unfortunately because landlords know some students are desperate the standard is normally quite low whilst the price is quite high.

Course

Overall everything has been very pleasing, the courses are very well structured, solid learning methods, teachers with knowledge and experience on their courses

Accommodation

Well related to where my Uni is located there's not much to tell cause I live a little far from campus, but overrall seems to be a fairly good neighborhood, quiet and nice and cozy as I like, I have no problems with amenities I seem to get everything I need from the nearest supermarket and I definitely would live here again

Course

The course has been mostly structured well, although I feel they have crammed too many assessments into the last term. The course so far has covered interesting content that links back to working in the industry. The quality of teaching is really good as all lecturers have or are still working in the industry. I have had a mixed response to feedback for assessments, sometimes I find it very helpful other times it has contradicted the feedback given to me previously (in tutorials I have been told to do one thing then lost marks for that thing in the assessment).

Accommodation

Overall, it's good. There was a mix up with my accommodation but they worked it out and I'm in a small but ok room. I chose one of the smallest rooms as I couldn't afford bigger. The best thing about living in halls is being part of the wider student community. The worst thing is that there isn't much space, we get one cupboard each and there isn't a 'social/lounge' area which I saw at a lot of other universities. Also, things seem to keep going wrong. e.g our shower keeps flooding, they keep 'fixing' it and it does it again.
