Great year and a lot of great people, good professors and plenty of classes. Even thought some classes where not organized it was still nice.

The university is located in ideal place close to train stations. I feel this university is good if your planning to stay at home and commute. I like the layout and as it has currently been refurbished it looks nice and the new additions are useful like the study area with the new computers in the tait building which i only recently discovered.

The campus is really.nice. all the buildings are very close to one another. It's probably a 5/10 min walk from the furthest two ends of the campus. The library is pretty good, past the 4th floor, there is only silent study so there is always room for you to study in silence, and also you can find various other casual rooms or computer rooms that are available for study. The food in the cateen is great, there's a massive range and a lot of dietary requirements are met so nobody feels excluded as there is something for everyone. I am studying engineering, I find that this school is particularly slow in general marking of exams and coursework, i couldn't comment on the other schools. The lecturers, there is a mix, some are very good and some are just there because they have to be, it seems like. The student Union often has a lot of events going on, their study well event was my favourite. They had various things during the exam weeks and the weeks coming up to exams where activities and workshops were available to students to relieve stress and just have something to do other than study.

City’s library services are amazing allowing me to study and learn quite flexibily. The lecture theatres are also very spacious and comfortable which makes learning much more easier.

Really great lecturers and professors. However, tutorials could be stricter but that is also down the students to be more engaged.

Good topics in the business school. Poor administration. Handing in essays early caused so much hassle it took them 2 years to sort it out. The lecturers were good and able to teach the topics adequately.

Good university for Psychology. Taught by lecturers that are the leading psychologists in their field. There isn't much of a campus as it is located in central London but I didn't mind. Psychology department was pretty well organised but the university itself could improve.

I think that this university is great! The people here are all extremely friendly, both on and off campus. I think that the students union bar and union itself could undergo some work to help improve it, but on the whole it does work well and the events planned are good. I think that during my time here I will have lots of opportunity to develop as a person, get better in my field of research and fulfil my idea of what university life should be like.

The lecturers are good and are pretty well known in their field. The facilities are okay but I wouldn't say it is fantastic. And I hate it how city law school doesn't have a canteen or at least a cafe where I can buy drink etc The campus are too far apart which is something I dislike. Student accommodation are way too expensive and it's a bit far off from the campuses.

Overall, the uni has provided me with exactly what I need. Only thing is I think we should have more support on our module choices such as getting people to really explain what it is or what it’s like. Most of us won’t understand what it’s about by the module description alone.

The university us very welcoming and understanding. Lecture captures allows you to go back to your lectures and revisit the content. Students are all very friendly.

The location of the Uni is amazing, so close to the centre of the City. The lecturer theatres are mostly modern and there are loads of spaces for individual study.

City university London is a great university. It has so many great facilities for learning the library and opportunities they give you are so vast. They work you hard and it makes it so worrthwhile. The sports facilities were renovated and created a year ago and are really amazing and at a really good price for students. The only thing that needs a little finding is putting money into the social life of the uni and societies even though you’re allowed to create your own society it is abit difficult to meet others from other courses out of timetable.

The campus is good. The library isn’t open 24 hours a day unless it’s exam season and it can be hard to find a place to sit down when it’s very busy. Investment and financial risk management is an interesting degree as the elective modules allow you to gain a vast amount of knowledge on multiple topics. The careers service is excellent and is very useful.

Overall good facilities, course and lecturers satisfactory but the experience overall is not that good as there is no community feeling. The student union failed to engage students with the uni life.

Due to the refurbishment over the last year, City has become a beautiful sight - which is abit of a shame considering it is my final year! I study criminology and all of my lecturers are renowned in the field and have been nothing but supportive throughout my three years! Organisation of the uni, on the other hand, is appalling: late timetables and clashing occurs every term without a doubt. My overall experience of City is a positive one: the people i have met and the network i have built is something i will carry throughout career and life.

Accounting and Finance course has many interesting modules mostly focussed around financial accounting classes. Lectures have very good experience in the industry and are able to make the modules interesting. Cass Business School is locates around 20 minutes walk from main campus, and host many extremely enjoyable events and networking opportunities which widens the scope of learning rather than purely based upon lectures. The societies available in the university are relatively limited, but they are useful and there’s an ability to go to a clubs and society’s fair at the beginning of the degree. The university has a gym about a 10 minute walk away, which has reduced payments for students. The facilities there are good and the sports hall hosts many games.

The student union is going a great job, the campus is clean and modern but as international student sometimes I ask for what I’m paying so much money for? I wouldn’t say it’s a fair money value.
