Aberystwyth University

It was amazing! Definitely a new experience. I would recommend this university to a lot of people because it has all the resources to achieve success and have a good time in the long run. Great accommodation, perfect for any student looking to feel the real uni experience. They are amazing. Perfect to get to know new people and other students just like yourself. Good resource, fantastic lecturers and great students. New experience and lots of fun things to do to get a proper feel of Swansea. Research the uni they are going to study at

Aberystwyth is an amazing university with top quality teaching and research especially in the Life sciences department. The town as a whole is unbelievablable with views of the Irish Sea and not too big everything is in within walking distance. The accommodation is in an ideal location for early morning lectures just a 5 minute walk to campus.

I have had a wonderful time studying at Aberystwyth university despite having a couple of years effected by covid. They were really helpful with the worries and disruptions of covid and refunded a great deal of our rent due to the effects. My year in industry supervisor was extremely helpful and helped me gain valuable work experience and knowledge. The town is small but lots of character so good for any student wanting to study here. The facilities are fantastic and the staff are always willing to help.

I loved it. Met new friends and engaged in a lot of activities. Really found myself. Really clean and safe. Rooms were a decent size and had a double bed. And an on site Library was perfect. Has group study areas and personal studying. Classrooms were big and small catered for all activities. Lecturers were quick to respond to problems. Lectures were interesting. Apply your learning in labs weekly Very safe. Everything you need is there. Nightlife is good too

My university experience so far has been such an eye opener to my future and during my nursing Placements I have developed so many new skills I'd never thought I would've gained during university. Aberystwyth uni has so many amazing facilities that are suitable for everyone and these have definitely made me more happier and healthy

Amazing night life and uni life

Despite the university workload (which is to be expected when studying for a degree, yes even with fine art) I have found my experience to be, although challenging, thoroughly enjoyable. The tutors are easy to get along with and the lectures don't actually send me to sleep but in fact influence and inspire my creativity. If I hadn't gone to University I wouldn't have developed the artistic skills vital for my future career. Who says an art degree is worthless? Not an art student, that's for sure.

Aberystwyth is a proper university town. Even though it's quite small compared to where I grew up, being London, it still manages to surprise me which I didn't think would happen. It's so lovely to meet people from all over the country and spend the days walking along the beach. Although the nightlife isn't that incredible as they only have a few nightclubs they make up for it with the amount of pubs which is around 30. The lecturers have such a passion for what they teach here and have a passion for Aberystwyth. Although many are from Wales and lived there their whole lives a few have gone to Aberystwyth and stayed to become lecturers so that they didn't have to leave. That's what I find so amazing about this place, being a small town but how diverse and interesting the people who live there are it's no wonder why people love to stay.

Friendly staff
Good facilities
My degree lead me to teaching

I graduated way back in 2001, I came accross this site and I wanted to let future students know about the amazing experience I had. I loved the university life in Aber. It has a very close-knit community and small town plus the environment make studying this course there a must!

I lived in halls for my first year and shared accommodation with friends in the final 2 years. Being by the sea at the sea front meant I could break away from the uni each day and is a great way to escape and relax

The union is constantly organising social events. I used them in my first year to get to know people and find my way around but less so in the last 2 years when the work load got manic and I was working!

I would recommend this university to everyone! Give Aber some serious thought when considering University
