I studied a PGCE course at this university and was really pleased with the facilities that was available to me. The course convener was really helpful and my course tutor was extremely supportive throughout. When organising placements, they made sure that they were within a close proximity to me.

Beautiful campus, great facilities for disabled students and students with hidden SEN. Student union was very helpful, education course very enjoyable and placement experience in schools were invaluable! On quite a few occasions tutors would cancel lectures and ignore emails but these would be the same members of staff. Other tutors would also provide as much support as needed and would often stay behind to answer additional questions if needs be. Careers service is excellent and provides advice about appeals when being mistreated by your department as well as the student union. The New library I have only recently been able to use has amazing facilities/ study rooms and open work spaces available with different voice levels- useful for when working with a group or when you need to focus and study alone!

Getting around campus is very convenient, all colleges within the university are close to each other which is perfect. Facilities are ok in general. I feel like some lecture halls could be updated as they look quite old. I go the lectures in queens building and I really don’t like how there are chairs scattered everywhere.. there should be fitted seats with tables to write on so students feel more comfortable. Also it’s very difficult for some students to hear if they sit at the back so I suggest louder speakers/microphone to be used during the lecture. Also the lectures voices in digby chapel aren’t very clear since it’s a very huge hall making to difficult to hear what lectures are saying. Overall the campus is very well looked after and maintained well.

Really good social life, good location and very friendly students on the whole. Brand new library and accommodation has just been finished this year too, so the facilities are also amazing.

University of roehampton is the best. The things that make it the best are the lecturers there firstly because they pay attention to every each student, they are ready to help you with everything you need and they are there to make you succeed. The way they teach is good also, in making everything to look interesting and funny.

The campus is my favourite thing about the university! Everything is so fresh and green and gets maintained on a weekly basis. Having a nice atmosphere to work in really makes a difference. The new library as well very clean and pretty inside with hundreds of useful books and comfortable seating. Very spacious and a lot of facility.

Beautiful campus, good facilities, zoology course is interesting but lacks diverse module selection, student union is pretty good with many events happening throughout the year and lots of focus on being progressive and beneficial for students, lots of societies to sign up for, plenty of opportunity to get careers help, organisation sometimes poor with regards to modules and examinations/coursework deadlines but that’s up to the individual lecturer.

My university is a very modern university in London, which is the only campus uni in the capital. All of the staff and very friendly and helpful, and the design and layout is very accessible. All of the events at the uni are excellent also.

The campus was beautiful but this was let down by the rough and dodgy aspect of the surrounding area. The quality of lectures was inconsistent, and often I found the faculty to be rude, arrogant and unapproachable. There were limited services available on campus. For example there were not enough atm’s, cafes, or causal social spaces. I loved my time at uni for the memories and my friends. Not the academic and pastoral services on offer.

I enjoy my course very much. It’s very easy to get extra help from lecturers. I gave a tutor for any advise on my course or university in general

The uni is great. There is a lot of support for everyone which helps in the diverse area of London that it is located. Fun events are organised weekly involving all students from all 4 colleges

I studied accounting and enjoyed it for all 3 years. I would say Motoaz was the most supporting lecturer in the course. I had also used the universities career services which helped me get two good work experiences.

Great facilities and they keep good contact with you prior to starting. Great line up for freshers week and they specialise I’m my chosen topic which is education.

As a first year student and now moving into my second, university in a nutshell was amazing because of the students themselves and the academic support. But the student union within the university is horrendous, slow responses with lack luster events that are forcing students away from university events and innovation to start up societies. Which is why roehampton has a scarce number of societies with exclusions of sports such as cricket. The facilities were top notch with 24 hours security but access to these facilities were unavailable in desperate times of needs such as exam periods.

I’m studying international business at Roehampton. So far it has been a great experience studying there.

A massive uni with a newly renovated library in the middle of the campus, facilities are also very good

My uni is okay. It’s not great but it’s not awful. Similar to Captain America. Why is he even here anyway? His only use is to be shocked by existing in this century and to look nice. Which he doesn’t. So I’m confused about that. Anyway, roehampton is similar. No one knows why it’s here, but my course has a 94% offer rate to all applicants so I know why I’m here. And hey, a degree is a degree.

The uni is good generally, facilities are great and a lot of money spent on asthetics. However, as a student I didn’t feel I have the support necessary and was unaware of what was expected of me through out most of the course.

Roehampton is a good university that offers wide choice of programs however as a student there was many times I felt like I wasn’t receive the support I was supposed to from lecturers and tutors.

You pay nine grand for barely any support from anyone. No one knows answers to anything you always have to chase everyone up. Very difficult.

The university is very unorganised. Many students would struggle with getting answers due to lecturers not knowing either and then having to email soo many people. Also lectures and tutors varied, in my course many tutors wernt the best and many students complained but nothing could be done. This meant most of us learnt many modules our selves, we pay nine grand for barely nothing. Basically roehampton you wouldnt have support your basically there to fend for yourself and dont get me wrong your a grown up. But everyone is just confused constantly.

Not a very inclusive university for bame students. Whilst many of thr lecturers are great, most of them dont care about nurturing your intellectual interests. The library is very nice . The halls are like a prison.

My university is great, if you’re looking to study in London but feel like you’re in the country still. With just a few minutes walk from Richmond Park you can enjoy the business of London, as well as the serenity of nature. Roehampton is in a great location, close to central London but not too close, that costs rise. The student union at Roehampton university is great for helping students as well as putting on a good night. Psychology as a course is hard (very maths based) but so interesting and well laid out

From my contact with the university, they have been extremely helpful! I needed my access to student offers and they were very quick to sort my issues out and provide my uni email address!
