Amazing

(5)·By Nawal Z·Biology· Jun 2023
My experience at the university has been amazing and interesting. I get to learn so much about our human body and relate them in real life. The teachers have been really helpful with assignments abd exams. Loads of resources abd information provided to students and extra help for students struggling, so overall my experience at University of Northampton has been GREAT

Psychology, Year 2

Overall, an amazing experience. I've met a lot of people, on my course and people on other courses. Living in halls for the Year 1 was also an experience for me, which I thoroughly enjoyed.

English Studies, Year 2

(5)·By Shanice A·English Studies· Jul 2021
It was different this year for sure but a little better with getting people together. Freshers virtual festival was pretty good but the uni sent out Information that benefited everyone. It's great, spacious and lively. People respond well if any issues occur, it's in a great location and looks amazing. Library is awesome and the classrooms are good and spacious. The computer access is great and the student union is helpful and great. They are fun, interactive and interesting. Everyone engages well and enjoys the classes. City life is quite boring as it's a town. Not many clubs or restaurants but I guess the few there are are lovely with great atmosphere.

Mental health support

(5)·By Nomagugu M·Nursing· Jun 2023
As an international student in the UK I first though it was going to be hard for me to adapt. At first it was hard being so far away from and I couldn't cope up with the homesickness. Thankfully, the strong support system has been very helpful to make me maintain balance between work, university and my social life.

History, Year 2

(5)·By Chloe M·History· Jul 2021
Freshers week was amazing! I met so many new people and made so many new friends, it also helped me settle into uni a lot better. Freshers week is definitely one of the best memories I have from uni and the happiest I'd been in a long time x The accomodation was beautiful! It was exactly what I wanted and more, very spacious and the storage space was incredible Library was brilliant always had what I needed and it's 24 hour services is great for my study schedule. Sports facilities are also great, although I don't use the on campus one for my sport I've been to watch games etc and it looks great. The course is so diverse and covers a wide range of time periods. The lectures are different for every course which I like because it makes every day different City life was great, the city isnt massive so it's not daunting etc. It's great because you are constantly bumping into people you know which makes it very welcoming.

Education / Teacher Training, Year 3

(5)·By Emily B·Education / Teacher Training· Jul 2021
Absolutely amazing. I met so many people and have so many friends from then to this day! The accommodation has both new and old and they are both organised in very social ways and they're all very clean and safe Amazing! They're new facilities where everything is brand new up to date and provides a very comfortable atmosphere for studying. They're 2 hours long which is perfect time and face to face and very practical. Can do learning first hand in a small class size instead of massive lectures in halls. City life in Northampton is small but there are plenty of bars and a few good clubs that everyone knows of and are all very close together and close to fast food at the end of your night.
