Excellent Support and so many opportunities There is excellent support at the University of Portsmouth, I've had an amazing experience here for my undergraduate so much so I'm back for my Masters! There's so many opportunities whilst studying like placements and work experience, but also outside of learning with hundreds of societies to get involved with and meet new people. Portsmouth has been such a rewarding place to study, I highly recommend!

First choice I’ve just started my final year at the University and I can safely say it was 100% the right choice for me. The support from the lecturers is brilliant, the facilities are amazing and the variety of services that are available for students to access is excellent. If I have ever had a problem there was always a service that the university offers that could help me. If I had to choose a university again Portsmouth would still be my first choice.

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.

I am just starting my 2nd year at the… I am just starting my 2nd year at the University of Portsmouth and I have been super impressed with how they handled the 1st year during the pandemic. I was apprehensive about starting and worried about the level of support I would receive whilst studying from home. However, I did not need to worry at all, all of the tutors and lecturers I encountered were super helpful at all times and pointed me in the right direction of specialist help when I needed it. All support resources were fab and whilst working as a key worker part time along-side university, the university were really accommodating with deadlines and any extra help I would need. I'm so excited to start back fully next week and continue my Portsmouth adventure

Great year despite covid I am now going in to my second year at uni of Portsmouth and I really can’t wait to get started. Given the circumstances of last year with covid, my lecturers did everything they could to give us the best experience and help possible. We even managed to get a lot of face to face teaching and lab work which was a lot more than other people could get. The university RESLIFE team are also brilliant, when I had issues within my flat, reslife helped to resolve and sort them straight away. I had a great first year and I’m sure it’ll only get better.
