The avenue campus is very nice, it’s smaller than highfield campus and is a quieter place to work. I feel like the students union is lacking, other universities have a special club night at their students union but we never had that and don’t really have a students union - I think it would bring people together

This restaurant Seastar Seafood Restaurant and Raw Bar on YouTube. This is advantageous in a few ways. First, he reaches a broader audience than just Yelp users. Videos are shared much more often than other forms of media so this can help increase visibility for Seastar Seafood Restaurant and Raw Bar. Second, a response like this establishes the restaurant’s credibility — it’s obviously authentic since you can see the chef himself talking restaurant Seastar Seafood Restaurant and Raw Bar on YouTube.

Southampton is arguably one of the UK's most green cities. That's green as in beautiful green plants and trees but also green as is, some parts are a bit sickly to look/smell/be in. The University is spread across 2 main campuses, with the University Hospital also being counted as a campus for the medics - we have a couple of decent lecture theatres but also a common room with a broken pool table and microwaves that haven't been washed in the four years i've been here. The student union does a decent job and it's £2 pints at the union on Fridays!

Really nice campus with all amenities close by. The library is massive but can get busy very quickly during exam session. Many cafes/canteens onsite which serve decent and reasonably priced food. The campus also has a few park areas which is nice for the summer! The uni offers many difference services that are easily accessible by students.

The campus is compact and easy to navigate around, the jubilee sports centre is good has a nice pool and gym however gym could be bigger and not ideal having to go to wide lane to play sports

Very good facilities, staff are very friendly and accessibility is good. Food services are widely available and relatively cheap.

One of the best features of the Uni of Southampton is its welcoming campus. The student union, centred around a student friendly shop, hairdressers and a plethora of eating facilities, all help to create a warm atmosphere with great community spirit. The facilities are excellent, especially Hartley library which provides ample space to work and study in a safe and quiet environment. However, the downfall of the Uni comes with the failure of some of the teaching staff. Although all lecturerers are highly qualified and have carried out/participated in outstanding research projects, there are a large number, who lack the ability to teach, which in some cases can severely affect the success of the students.

Tutors are mostly very helpful and available to talk to and get advice from. Campus facilities e.g. gym, cafes, libraries etc are well maintained and usually pretty affordable.

Campus: beautiful campus with a lot of trees and flowers, with its own little park. There are many places where you can get a cheap student meals, but also a lovely restaurant right in the Union Building. There's also a cinema which often has new movies for half the price, pub, sports hall and many others. Careers Services: often, employment fairs are held at university, with many employer coming over to have a chat with students. Also, it is possible to see someone in the library to help with CV

The campus is being updated and some of the buildings are a bit old, but the interiors are overall very good. There are lots of options for food on campus. The student bar is great, cheap, even if a tad small. There is a large selection of societies to choose from. The support for less well off students, or those with mental health issues are, in my experience, excellent!

The University of Southampton is great for me. I have managed to thrive there whilst I did not manage the same successes at another UK university. The teaching staff in the law school are so committed and helpful.

Campus life is excellent, highfield campus is the main site with bolder wood campus and and the university hospital being not far away, there is also a campus in Malaysia! Student union constantly puts on events for everyone, alcohol drinker or not. I'm a 2nd year medical student so much f my time is spent in the anatomical sciences laboratory and the hospitali and hartley library's. All are excellent facilties and I would 100% recommend.

As I am studying medicine, I spend the majority of my time at the hospital for teaching, whether that be placement or lectures. However, when I am on campus there are lots of things that I appreciate. For example the £3 all day breakfast is brilliant. Then looking at sports facilities on campus, there are a variety of classes to attend at the gym and also the climbing wall and squash courts. With these all being so close on campus, its easy to do last minute and between lectures. I haven't had much experience with the careers services as due to my course I'm already on a decided path. In terms of the student union, I've also not had much experience here, maybe because there isn't much going on or I've just never got involved.

Campus is clean and easy to navigate around. My course psychology is good, could use more 1-1 sessions as students get lost within the many and may need extra help. Not a lot of contact time

The marketing course is very good. The campus is very clean and big. Some of the buildings are quite far away from the campus so this is annoying.

Campus cinema is great, love going to watch films at a cheaper price than places like odeon and showcase but the facilities are excellent. The films come out a little later than normal cinemas but the ease of getting to it, being on campus and the price makes it worth the wait. Drinks and snacks are also available to buy making it an even better experience.

University of Southampton has give me an opportunity to develop my knowledge and more understanding on business knowledge. I've been given the chance to express myself on my hobbies and have a better understanding with other cultures from different countries. The campus is small itself but it's convenient to get to one destination. The student union is good and well establish. Overall, it has a rich history and I would like to be a part of that history in the near future.

Lovely campus with different study spaces, shops, places to eat etc. Really nice in summer as gardens are well kept and pretty! The gym on campus is wonderful although sometimes busy, but the gym membership includes other things such as access to swimming pools and gym classes at no extra cost.
