  • Dislikes:
  • I was not Happy with Medical Services. It is difficult if you get sick. NHS is not very much accessable. Also there is aspects of racism among students, which is not addressed properly.

Campus Life:

Sports facilities are very Nice. People playing sports have a great opportunity

Hostel:

I paid 400 GBP per month. It was a decent facility. University facilities have shared and private options. I have rented a room in private household. You can expect around 500 gbp for accomodation .

  • Dislikes:
  • I guess that too much was happening at the same time, which I believe for freshers can be overwhelming or confusing. The early few months of navigating the college space and finding your niche is often difficult.

Campus Life:

The university was founded in 1967 officially and is located on the edge of Stirling city. The university is situated on the site of the historic Airthrey estate which includes the Robert Adam-designed 18th century Airthrey Castle. So yes, you can see that castle as well and take long evening strolls in the university across the lake. UoS ideally is a sports university so you can expect a lot of sports activities all year round. If you just want to play among your peers or might want to make new friends who play the sport that you like, then the university also has a concept of booking slots for playing. You can either come with a group or alone just to play with strangers. I remember making so many friends during my badminton games. But if sports aren't your thing and you're into gym fitness then there's 2-level gym for students along with Zumba, Cardio, Boxing classes being conducted regularly. Apart from that there are over 50+ clubs in the university providing extracurricular activities such as dance, boxing, cheerleading, reader's club, drama & theatre etc. WiFi is always available on the campus from gyms, cafeteria, hostel rooms, libraries, study zones inside of the library and seating/studying zones out of the library too. The university had its own grocery, cafe, pizza and pub place for students to really enjoy themselves. The university also provides a 2-3 level library which is accessible to all students. And during exam period they are fully functional with separate studying room. I actually remember pulling off all-nighters in the 3-floor study area and going back to my dorm room at 4 in the morning. Lastly, there's medical chamber inside the campus. So, for any of your requirements for MH, Physical health is taken seriously and with great care. There are coaches, therapists and counselors to always help and guide students apart from the academics. There's a lot of things that happen at UoS and sometimes it might feel like overwhelming or confusing. But I feel once you're able to catch hold of it, it's a great experience.

Hostel:

There are multiple types of accommodation available as per your needs from cheap housing on campus or off campus. I feel its best to apply for on-campus housing during your study and then later you can always shift out to the city. You can opt for single rooms as well. Majorly its single occupancy but the options are limited and might be costly. The cheaper ones usually get booked early. Otherwise, the accommodation is quite good in terms of cleanliness, space and furnishings. You get a fully functional kitchen, room and bathroom. Please note bathrooms and washrooms are always sharing and not personal. You can also avail for financial aid on housing.

  • Dislikes:
  • Students miss lot of internship opportunities,
  • Subjects are too hard to pass and maybe you have to re work your assignments,
  • Class time table are not properly organized so there is chaos

Campus Life:

The campus life is perfect and the exposure students get is good. There is a library block with different subjects and journals necessary for the course curriculum. There is also a sports management team in the university to oversee the inspection of ground maintenance. There is a round-the-clock medical service clinic on campus and you can get the service of a psychologist if needed. There is a freshers fest for new students and there is a student club to help international students with their admission queries. There is a university coop run by students.

Hostel:

At first, I was new to the country and didn't know anyone there so I decided to stay at the university accommodation that is Pendreich Way. But it is expensive because it is near to the university. There is also off-campus accommodation but the rent is the same. Then I met some friends and decided to move from the hostel. Then I shifted to an apartment in Glasgow around 1 hr travel by vehicle which is comparatively cheap than university accommodation. At Pendreich Way it is 440 pounds per month and you have to spend around 150 pounds plus for food but you can share expenses with your friends. The criteria for off-campus accommodation is first come first serve. you must book for off-campus accommodation as soon as you get admission. In university accommodation, there is a kitchen, 4 rooms bathroom and shower room.

Campus Life:

Excellent in all aspects, I was playing for a recreational football team during the time as well.

Hostel:

Accommodation on the University was good, and it was not in Sharing. Safe and sound with a lot of international students residing. It was expensive than living inside the city with the average costs being 700 pounds on campus and 350-400 pounds per month approx in the city.

Campus Life:

The campus is one of the BEST in UK. It's huge and spacious with the best sports complex in the country. There's lots of green space to walk/jog around. There are various restaurant, cafe, Starbucks and a uni bar. The student's union takes alot of initiative to get students involved in various activities all year long

Hostel:

I love on university off campus accomodation. But it's very very close to the uni. There are other accomodations available which are not to far(20 min walk). My acc. Is comfortable. A seperate room with a cupboard/table/chair/rack bedding/comforter/pillow provided. They also give 2 sheets of bed sheet and some cutlery. You have to share the bathroom with 9 other flatmates but there are 2 bathroom and washroom per 9 rooms.

The particular college offers executive distance learning i.e., I can study while working. In fact the course is designed such that those who are studying would get more benefits like some tools to apply in their workplace.
