As an exchange student, I am very happy that I came to Swansea University and I am currently wondering of staying here to finish my studies! I felt so welcomed at university and I like everything the administration or the students provide

Bay Campus is all new and always clean. Library might be a bit small, but there are a lot of working places all over campus

Very good! Everyone is here to help

They offer a lot of opportunities to have fun at university and meet new people. I feel like they do a lot of things to improve our life at university. They help us saving money with their offers through shops and bars. And they give us information about what they do, and ask our mind about it

Good! A lot of bars and affordable restaurants. Living be the sea is awesome and the beach is clean and nice to walk on. A lot of things are accessible walking and the bus network is quite wide so we can take the opportunity to visit the area without spending too much money. The area is awesome, there are many things to do in and around Swansea!!

There are so many societies that it is too hard to choose which to join. Many sports societies that aren't common (nice to try new things) and they almost all offered taster sessions at the beginning of the year. There is a society for every subject we can learn at uni, and they all are affordable

Classes are very interactive (use of Slido, Kahoot, etc.) and the teaching media make it more interesting. Teachers are really involved and I feel like they make the most for us by being available and always asking feedback on their classes.

Offers workshops to learn practical skills (for example Navigation, Cooking, First Aid, Sports, ...) Offers Academic Support (Help for essays for exemple) and classes to improve language, writing and oral presentations, etc.

My experience was a little different compared to those who had come to the university years prior but my experience so far overall has been amazing I love my room in halls and have been placed with great flat mates which is great as I don’t have to worry about moving rooms which the university offers to students if they don’t get alone with their flat mates. The college offers many support systems like for example a personal tutor which is there to help you with any personal problems as well as academic.

The university is amazing when it comes to the library and the facilities they offer for students to study in, what I love most about the spaces to study is the fact they are very open but then can be a little private for students to get on with assignments.

The university offers many things for example the have many places for students to have food and drinks also a place to study away from halls.

Although teaching is online and in face to face in the college, the staff are trying their best to ensure we still get the experiences that most students have in their first year of academic life. With most students online as there are limited students allowed in the classes due to COVID it has been hard to try and connect with other students and staff but this can not be helped in anymore ways then the college is already doing.

Cost is a little high per week but it can be justified as it is on campus and you don’t have to worry about costs of travel as you can walk to all lectures. The room I am currently in is a stunning room with a great view of the beach if you look on a angle, the lighting in the room is amazing and only in the night I have to put the lights on. The only problem in the room is the shower as it is very powerful and can often leak all over the floor of the bathroom. Apart from this problem there is no others about the accommodation it is very clean and having such great flat mates is such a great thing as many of them are quiet, even though I did not sigh up for a quiet flat.
