My university experience is awesome; the coursework we get is great. I'm glad I don't sit any exams as they aren't for me. My lectures will forever hold a place in my heart as they all do an amazing job. When I graduate, they'll be the first I'll thank and give a lot of credit to for the job they do. I love going to university so much; it's better than a 9-5 job I have no interest in. Craig Hooper, James Rendell, Steve Johnson, Tim Galsworthy, Rebecca Matthews, and Peter Jachimiach are the best lecturers out there. No one can tell me otherwise. At first, I thought university wasn't for me until my open day and saw James teaching everyone there. That's when I knew this is going to be an experience to remember!

Amazing! So welcoming, had events on in both the SU and in Cardiff. Best weeks to begin your uni experience Glamorgan courts- little dim in lightening but has everything you needed including on suit and mini fridge in the room Really good! Everything was available most of the times, really great sport facilities. SU although small was amazing because you felt apart of a lot and became friends with all years Lecturers where so understanding and caring. Would help you through so much. The lectures although could be tedious a points all facilitated towards the end goal, and you learn some really amazing things along the way. The uni has great external links too for work experiences and post jobs EPIC, especially during rugby home games, can't beat a night out in the ‘diff and transport to abs from was super easy

Media Studies, Year 1

Amazing! So much fun and met some really great people. the accommodation was perfect, very modern and trendy. Library is massive, the SU is convenient and cheap. The lecturers are amazing, really good at giving in depth talks. The classes are small and intimate. Everyone’s always there to help.. The city is perfect, so many shop choices and easy access to everything. It’s mostly coursework based, don’t join if you want exams

Education, Year 1

Great part time course. Very informative and great tutors.

Able to study as well as work full time which allows you to reflect and improve upon your own practice.

Also good to link your practice to theory when writing essays

I absolutely fell in love with this university as soon as I set foot inside. all of the staff are incredible and very professional, and made me feel welcome. The building itself is incredible and has state of the art facilities and equipment. There are both stairs and lifts to get around, and room numbers are clearly stated on each door.

It was fun! Really good vibes and very informative! Helped a lot with nerves. Very nice, modern and comfortable with great staff and facilities! The rooms were big and perfect for the Advertising environment with great equipment. The and the Student bar (which had great food) and library were my personal heavens. It was very informative because of the background tutors had. There were also speeches and trips from/to agencies which were inspiring! Cardiff was a great city, very warm, welcoming and perfect for students!
