I've just finished my first year of study at UoP... I've just finished my first year of study at UoP and, despite the difficulties of the pandemic, have thoroughly enjoyed my time here. Online lectures and seminars have been engaging and tutors are always available to support with tricky materials or discuss coursework queries. The city-campus style of the uni means that I get to explore the beautiful city on my way to lecture buildings, and the testing facilities have allowed me to feel safe going back to face-to-face teaching. Overall, a brilliant experience so far and I cannot wait to start my studies again in October!

Being an International student at The University of Portsmouth.. Being an International student, It was easy to adjust and get help. The university buildings are spread out around the city and the locations are not far from each other. Easily accessible by walking or taking the University buses which are free. There are university cafes around the buildings to grab a bite. Professors are very welcoming, interactive and give extra support if needed. The university gives you an option to join societies according to your hobbies/interests. One of the best ways to find friends in the city. The university is one of the best in terms of teaching and accommodating students and has a plethora of facilities in order to develop and gain new skills and knowledge.

Third year student! I am not going into my third year at the university of Portsmouth and so far it has been great! I study criminology with psychology and the modules are really interesting and insightful! The university is really beneficial in terms of its careers services they provide. I am very excited to start my third year here and gain many more opportunities with the university.

Awful Learning Experience As a mature student studying a degree in Virtual and Augmented Reality, who has just completed his 3rd year at Portsmouth University. I have to say I have had an awful experience. From studying online in the first year and being charged full tuition fees, to having my student support cancelled in the 3rd year. I can with my hand on my heart say I have had an awful education there. Think twice before you enroll.

My experience as an Estranged student Initially, I was terrified of attending university as an Estranged student. I was worried about being alone and unsupported. However, the student finance team offered and provided me with a variety of support including financial guidance, personal support and a bursary. The student wellbeing team were incredibly helpful with the courses that they run and the access to their trained therapists. Recently, there has been a society set up for students in my position which has helped me to feel more included and welcome within the university. All of the university staff that I have had the pleasure of engaging with have been supportive and accommodating throughout.
