- Dislikes:
- You might face racism in this Country so be prepared for that.
Campus Life:
They have ample extracurricular activities on campus like yoga, sports, dance and many more. The Uni has over 100 societies, one can join whichever society they wish to. They have facilities like a library, gym, pool, study spaces, eateries, etc.
Hostel:
I was living in University Accommodation which had an ensuite room with a shared kitchen. I was sharing my kitchen with 8 girls. My rent was 169 GBP per week. One can look for student accommodation located outside the campus but one will have to travel to campus for min 4 days a week. It is preferred to look for accommodation which is near to the campus as it is easy to navigate every day.
- Likes:
- I like the accessibility of health care tools and virtual labs.
- Dislikes:
- I don’t think I like the lack of assessment tools.
Campus Life:
The campus has a decent infrastructure, there are many student union groups, cultural, religion and sports-oriented. There are about 80+ sports clubs and also country-wide clubs.
Hostel:
Initially, I opted for student accommodation, which cost me around 540 pounds per month, including bills. After 6 months, I moved with my friends to an individual house closer to the university. Here I pay around 360 pounds, including bills, which is very affordable. Accommodation-wise, you can say Swansea is very affordable for a student, as you will be paying around $300-500 per month. Student accommodation can be a little costly otherwise.
Hostel:
So the first year, my accommodation was in student halls, which I personally liked because it was 3 minute walk from campus. However then, I had decided to shift to private accommodation nearer to the City Centre, as that suited me best. The facilities are really accessible, but I personally would recommend, looking closer to the University Campus.
The university course -BSc Applied Medical Sciences is a fantastic pathway for those looking to go into medical research, enterprise, or study Medicine afterwards. The location is really relaxing with the beach near the university campus and the lecturers and support network is really welcoming and encouraging. I chose Swansea particularly due to the 2nd year Pathways that they provide to study Graduate Entry Medicine.
Hostel:
Accommodation is a swift process, with a wide variety of rooms of all sizes available. There are many student accommodations that are provided by the university, however, these get booked super quickly, hence I stay at a private student accommodation which is located 3 km away from the engineering campus. State-of-the-art facilities and you get rooms ranging from 90 pounds per week to at least 210 per week if you are looking at a higher range.
Well, Swansea has a good ranking with regard to Electronics and communications. Furthermore, the locale was something that was really important to me. Pursuing engineering is a tedious task hence I needed to be situated in a place that was away from all the chaos. Thus, Swansea is where I chose to be. Lastly, nothing beats Welsh people. There is no racism and everyone is accepted the way they are.
Hostel:
I'm living in a private accommodation off campus. The average cost of living off-campus is about £500 per month which includes rent and bills. You might have to spend additionally on food and outings.
I liked the modules as they cover a wide range of topics integral to my field of interest. Moreover, the university is also known for its excellence in research and is well-ranked in the UK.
Hostel:
The university accommodations are good and quite clean. Accommodation outside the university is a good advantage as they are cheaper and have bus access to anywhere.
The university is highly ranked in the UK and has a good standard of education in the field of engineering and also a good location.
Chose Swansea University out of all because they offered a mix of MSc in Management and Business Analytics, two courses that I wanted to do. Also, because of the location as it is a very quiet and peaceful place with nice views.
