Newcastle University

Newcastle University hasn't really fallen short on anything. Great community, great course, great accommodation, great nightlife, great career prospects. I know I definitely made the right choice.

Amazing. Newcastle medical school runs such an interactive course and all of the lecturers are so approachable. The accommodation has been great as has the social side of it all. Newcastle as a city is just big enough not to get bored but also small enough to be able to get to everywhere without having to get busses. It's also just a metro ride away from the beach which is fab!

Freshers week was a very positive experience. There was a good mix between learning about the course structure and content whilst allowing you to meet your fellow course mates. The university put on numerous social events which were a great opportunity to meet new people and get involved in new activities. Additionally, there was plenty of student reps on campus during the week to help you whenever needed. Newcastle University provided a wide range of accommodation varying in price to cater for all. Plenty of choice from catered/non-catered, shared bathroom/en-suite, shared kitchen/studio. Accommodation staff and cleaners were always very friendly and polite. Facilities were up to date and of high standard. Plenty of computers available to use. Lots of independent/group study rooms are situated throughout the campus which are bookable - I found this particularly helpful during exam times. Facilities were always kept clean. In biology I was able to choose from a wide range of modules, this meant I could study areas which I was interested in. There was a good mixture between independent work, group projects and laboratory time. Lecturers were passionate about their subjects, which came across in the lectures making them more engaging. Newcastle was an excellent city, plenty of shops, restaurants and bars. Metro service was good enabling you to travel around the city quickly.

So fun, went out every night but one and met the best people who I am still close to now! Missed out on all the day time events though!

My accommodation was a quiet mostly post-grad one, but my flat was amazing! Good quality rooms and close to campus. All the other accommodations I visited were really nice too and none were too far out. There are only 2/3 which people see as being lower quality

Library’s are really good and close to the city centre. The law school is small with a tiny lecture theatre (but big enough for the course) and it is right next to the main library. The sports centre is well equipped but expensive for what it is. Only been to the SU bar in freshers but it was nice

They spread the modules out well and pair together well. The lectures are good, having some 2 and some 1 hour lectures, these suit the modules well and help with accessing the content. Have loads of modules to choose from in third year, a good spread of topics.

The city is amazing! Not too small so can walk everywhere but the metro is so convenient also. Nightlife is good as everything is quite close together and not too expensive. The city centre has nearly all of the shops you could want but the metro centre is close enough if you can’t find what you need

To remember first year might not count but if you are wanting to go into law that you still need to work hard as you have to start applying for things in second year. So all employers have to go on are your first year results. Seminars are so helpful and can use them as a revision tool almost. Law is hard but rewarding and is interesting a lot of the time. Make sure to spend plenty of time on coursework, it pays off in the end.

Freshers week was incredible. Met loads of new people and had really fun experiences. The night life was simply amazing Accommodation had a really good social aspect as there were so many students. Really nice facilities and very modern Lecture theatres were very modern and the library is very good. The gym was severely lacking but this was due to building work on a new gym. The student union has some good stuff in it but the student union bar could be massively improved The course is very interesting and has very valid applications to the real world. Lectures were very interactive and lecturers were very engaging. The seats in lectures were also very comfy which helped when having long lectures City life in newcastle is exceptional. Very vibrant city with lots going on. Loads of great restaurants and too many class clubs to count

Newcastle is highly recommend.

Everyone at the university - staff and students are friendly and set in a beautiful city with lots to do makes the experience amazing. The courses are interesting and they all involve a lot of contact time and great student facilities are available to all.

It was really nice with lots of activities lined up. They were so many events lined with freebies available to all students. There are varieties of accommodation to fit your budget. The halls are well cleaned and tidy with the last set equipments to ensure comfort. The facilities are excellent and open to every one The teachers are knowledgeable, help you understand your studies. Listen to your questions and needs Bubbling and exciting

Really fun there were lots of socials and different ways to meet people. The uni encouraged this a lot I lived in castle leazes, very social. It was catered which was good but the whole place was a bit grim Library very good and well kept although not enough seats in the robbo. Student uni was expensive The lecturers knew what they were talking about and advised well for future career paths. The course was engaging Newcastle is incredible, it's very fun and vibrant. Perfect size for students

I would highly recommend anyone looking at Newcastle to definitely apply. The teaching is amazing as well as the city itself. The staff are so kind and helpful and I really feel at home here.
