Overall Rating

While the university provides a great academic environment, financial support could be improved. It is quite challenging for international students to find suitable scholarships, as many have strict or complex eligibility criteria. Expanding scholarship opportunities and simplifying the application requirements would make higher education more accessible for international students.

Accommodation

While the accommodation has a good location and provides basic facilities, some issues need improvement. Cleanliness, particularly in the shared bathrooms and toilets, is often poor and requires more regular maintenance. Additionally, there are no bins inside the toilet areas, which makes it inconvenient and unhygienic.

My room is also extremely cold, even when the ventilation is turned off. It is difficult to stay warm, especially during colder months. Improving heating and overall maintenance would significantly enhance students’ comfort and wellbeing.
