Overall, I have somewhat enjoyed my experience here so far. The student union is great and there are many facilities within it - I like the fact that it is run by students as well; it reflects student voice. Since my course is in a new building, the campus is far away from the SU and other campuses so it feels rather isolated from the rest. There is also not much within the building itself - would be better if it had a cafe for example. Nevertheless, it is a new building so I contend that it would not have a variety of facilities. However, as for the course itself.... I have done 2 essays and will soon be participating in an in-class test, but honestly, I feel like I haven't had much support in doing these tasks to the best of my ability. The assignments and tests seem rather abrupt and sudden in my opinion. Other than that, I have enjoyed the course so far.

Overalll it's good but more support is needed for freshers to mingle and for mental health. Facilities and nightlife are very good, and it's a cheap city up live in

A good university but not a lot of programme support within nursing. The lecturers often give different answers to student questions. There is never one answer and lectures are often cancelled last minute.

I'm studying law and it's very interesting but the amount of reading is a lot to handle. My room in talybont south is average, but nothing amazing. I haven't had any issues other than that it is cold. The student union is incredible for a good night out or space to study in the day.

I'm really enjoying it here so far. The teachers are helpful and the university itself has a great feel to it. Cardiff is a great city to live in aswell and I've met some really great people here so far. I'm really glad I chose Cardiff University.

An amazing place to study with loads and loads of facilities for students. Extracurricular activities are amaxing and the cafeteria is also so good filled with different varieties of food. It's a nice place to be at because it has multicultured students which makes it even more interesting. Me as an international student, chose Cardiff only because the city is small and compact and has many interesting things.

Cardiff University school of medicine is very supportive with student learning. Being international student, communication can be an issue, however the school of medicine is very concern with our learning and offer help.

The campus at Cardiff is full of beautiful old buildings and is dispersed through the student area. Biomedical sciences is placed in the biosciences building, which has numerous labs and many resources students can use. The students unions turns into big student nights every Wednesday and Saturday, and in the day is a great place to go work with friends and get some food or just hang out. It also has useful shops on the bottom floor, including a post office, co-op and coffee shop. The careers service is full of friendly staff who want to help students get the most out of their degree in the future.

The facilities are brand new in the building for my course. There is state of the art technology and there are plentiful resources to use for research and assignments. The course is very interesting in terms of content. The students union is an excellent part of the university and encompasses a plethora of services for support during your time in university. So far, the organisation of my experience so far has been excellent.

The campus of the university is good and feels friendly. The students union has good facilities and holds lots of great events. The careers services are good and very helpful. They hold lots of events which allow you to talk to employers. Some lecturer halls are run down. The overall running of the university is good.

The university experience is great, with proximity to city centre and transport facilities. Moreover, the entertainment facility is sufficient.

Overall, for my course (in the business school) facilities are really modern and excellent. In lecture theatres there is easy access to charging ports for laptops, however there isn't really access in rooms for tutorials, and some of the plugs in cafe's and similar areas do not work which is a shame. The course structure (Accounting and Finance) is excellent. The students union has good food facilities and a good range of shops, however the night life within the student union isn't the best, it's quite cramped.
