Hi there, I'm Luna.
I'm a bit like an AI, except instead of making pictures of people with 16 fingers, I can help you find the perfect course and uni.
Would you like some help in your search?
It was so bad I had to drop out from 3rd year. Be very careful if you chose to study there. This university have extremely bad reputation for a reason.
The buildings are nice but they miss some indications to find our way. Plus, Paisley is not always very accessible so it's difficult to enjoy student life there.
it was amazing experience at glos as its my learning final stage. the staff is very cooperative and supportive.
Honestly, I am beyond dissapointed with the quality of my course. Do not go to UWS (Lanarkshire) unless you have no other options. First off, class timetables won't be released until the week before you are due to attend the classes. It is currently the 23rd of March, I need to be in class on the 4th of April and still have no idea what days, what times (the fact timetables are released late is the one consistent thing at UWS). They also will not tell you about placements until again a week or two in advance, and considering these placements are full time hours (40-48hrs a week), it is next to impossible to schedule childcare, work schedules, anything within the timeframe between when you get your placement details to when you are physically on placement. When my course begun, they also didnt release my coursework to me until 4-5 weeks AFTER the course had physically begun, so I had no access to any of the work I was suppossed to be doing until over a month into the course. My university also forgot to ensure I was health checked when the pandemic hit, sent me out on placement, realised that wasn't allowed, pulled me out of placement, then because of COVID I couldn't get a health check appointment until halfway through the academic year, at which point I was so behind on placement I had to do a repeat year. Every step of the way I have tried to raise complaints with the university about how unacceptable this all is, and every step of the way they refuse to acknowledge any responsability for these issues. You, as the student, are made to feel all these setbacks are somehow your fault. I have had nothing but negative experiences at this university and I cannot say it enough: DO NOT GO HERE.
The Lanarkshire campus is miles away from anything (which is a shame for transport)
massive let down, really poor communication and the student satisfaction for me and my friends has not been good at all, the uni do not communicate with you or really guide you when u start so you need to figure it out yourself, really wouldn’t recommend here
The lecturers and staff in the uni are all very helpful, kind, friendly. Has made finding out information very easy. Uni is very good at providing updated through email and MyDay as well as having a very informative website. Uni campus is excellent, many different buildings so difficult to find way around to begin with. Gym facilities are great as well as the union for food/ drinks. Not much on campus experience as all classes have been online, majority optional aside from lectures all taking place online. Seminars are optional on campus/ online. Labs all on campus, great science facilities in the building.
As studying at the Lanarkshire campus, it is very easily accessible for individuals that can drive, not as easy for those who don’t. Incredible facilities within the Lanarkshire campus as it’s all new, with tidy and clean laboratories. Throughout studying during Covid, the lecturers have been very supporting and doing everything they can to adapt and still make the course interactive and stimulating.
