I love how free the university is with building future entrepreneurs. They have facilities and mentor ships available.

The campus seems a bit dated but it is changed for next year as it is moving. My course has been good as the tutors are always on hand to help us and the students union team are always finding new ways to improve and make it better.

I gave my university an overall rating of 4 stars. The campus itself is basic, it’s nice clean and well kept, however does not compare to other universities I’ve seen on architecture and size. Facilities are relatively good, library open and cafe with good food but things like laptop hire etc sometimes have issues. My course is event management, and I do love it. However, lecture theatres could be better as well as classrooms- chairs are uncomfortable and make staying in a room more than 30 mins unbearable. You start to just focus on how much you want to be out of the chair rather than do the work. Tutors however are lovely and very supportive, and the uni itself has amazing people and resources to help with careers and your future which has helped me tons! Overall great uni, it’s juat a bit basic compared to others and lacks complete commitment to students needs: such as comfort in lectures and things such as laptop hire for certain people.

The fine art facilties are excellent with lots of room and access to equipment. The student union have a building which sells delicious food at cheap prices and drinks, open throughout the day and evening. I am worried everything will change for the worse when everyone moves to waterside in september expect from the art department whos staying at Avenue Campus. At the moment the art shop is extremely handy for quickly picking up art supplies inbetween lectures and when needed. But this is also being taken away from us in September which will mean we will be sort of equipment or will have to take time out of uni to travel further to buy something as simple as a pen. Also the price parking is rising dramatically too as a monthly charge which is unfair if we dont come in everyday or always drive. We have all complained but nothing has changed.

The University of Northampton is not the most impressive university, however it is full of amazing and helpful staff. The university doesn’t just focus on your study, it provides extensive opportunities to learn about future careers and gaining experience.

Some of the finest years of my life. The campus is a little dated and some of the administration left a bit to be desired but the standard of teaching has been sky-high.

The campus is really modern, central and newly built. The SU is pretty engaging with at least weekly parties. Course material is good, but not great.

Great experience for me being an international student. Supportive teachers and great learning facilities especially for the music department.

Overall a good university to study at. There is a wide range of facilities and activities to choose from. The student union is good at organising events for us. The not so good things are studying at Moulton College because the level of organisation there this year was shocking.

My university course is through Northampton uni, however I study at Moulton College as this is one of their institutes. The support and teaching at this college is dreadful with many students applying to other universities for their next year.

The uni is awful. The student union do not represent the students. The complaints process is extremely badly managed and the nights out are also crap. My lecturers however on the music course are fucking awesome

Overall the Uni has a homely feel about it. The nightlife and student union are overall very good. However the art department could do with an update and the opportunities for careers after the course are limited.

The lecturers definitely make The University of Northampton, they have made my university experience. They’re helpful and always there for you when you need some support. The university as a whole is good, the campus is smaller than normal universities but that’s what adds to the appeal, if you enjoy a close community then this is the uni for you. Other services such as Student support, financial team, Unitemps could be a lot better and at time, not very helpful. The organisation of my course which is Sociology is good. The students union could be a lot bigger but they do offer a number of great events and opportunities.
