Since the university is so centrally located, there are so many things to do within a 10-20 minute walk, whether it is going to the library, bank, parks, market, or the Quayside.
The student support is great. There are a lot of resources available to get help from when you are facing difficulties with your academics or personal life. There is a ton of flexibility and alternative arrangements for assessments and exams.
The Student Union is insanely active. Lots of activities organized every week, with a ton of promotion on social media, so you always know what's happening on and off campus.

The transportation here is quite convenient, compared to other cities in UK. I know that there are only three cities including metro system in UK, so it means I am so lucky to study here. The most thing is cleanness of metro, not only in the metro carriage, but also I've seen a lot of litters spray on the tracks.

I believe Newcastle is a great place to study for many reason. The richness in diversity at this institution truly drew me in. Also Newcastle is a student-friendly town it's very accessible can take the bus, metro, or walk many places because the University is centered the city. I also love the events the student union host , my favorite one is the freebies event , where student can receive free items. I also enjoy the on campus grocery store, its so helpful. Moreover professors are very helpful and easy to get in touch with. I am enjoying my time here at the university overall.

Lots of activities. Supportive staff and not to much passing problems to someone else. Students are listened to and we'll supported. I'm in park view and it's really close to the medical school. In park view medical students are paired up so there are at least 2 per flat so you know someone before lectures even start. It's not much of a walk into town. One negative is there's there isn't any big shops anywhere near the park view.

Support for housing changes need to be improved and overall quality of accommodation.

It is a very beautiful campus and in a good area — there is good public transport as well. The module leaders and professors are overall helpful and supportive. The issues I have run into are just on the administrative/technical side. Overall a very good place to study!

Newcastle Uni is in the heart of a bustling city and therefore there is so much for people to do. From coffee shops, to entertainment venues, there is something for everyone!! Whilst Newcastle is given a rep as a ‘boozey’ city, even for non-drinkers there is so much going on! As for the uni itself, the campus is beautiful and there are wonderful places to study, including a wide range of libraries and modern study spaces. There are plenty of food vendors too, although they are quite expensive. The students union offers great experiences to get involved in (for free or a very low cost), and is situated perfectly in the heart of campus. However, the building is not very modern and is beginning to fall apart. Signage around the students union is not clear, so many would not know what the building is. A Wetherspoons recently opened, which is always busy and a great place to hang out.
The unis health and well-being services are awful. There is long waits, and staff do not seem to be understanding about circumstances impacting studies. There have no been many effective measures put in place to deal with the cost of living crisis etc. The Uni are also endorsing companies that are supporting the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, that does not give a good image to its students.

Generally I feel very good to be a Newcastle University student. From my view, the course arrangement or distribution can be improved, like being more intense. And I feel it will be better to have more lectures in some courses since we have plenty of time.
