The biggest improvement to date , is the ...  Read the complete review

An ok uni, but a good City! The city itself is great for students, there are lots in the city so you will find that nightlife on most weeknights is lively and there are good deals. There are also lots of places, which offer students part time work and are flexible as they are aware of term times and study requirements! The ...  Read the complete review

If you feel this university isn't the one right one for you, then go with your instincts and get out before red tape keeps you there. There is probably a good reason that you didn't gel with the place. ..Especially true when it comes to Northumbria 'University'. After two years, it may prove difficult to get on a different course, especially if ...  Read the complete review

Well I wasn't very impressed I think I liked the idea of being at university in Newcastle more than being at this particular institution, which only became a university relatively recently! Owing to its being christened "the poly" by the University of Newcastle students. (the smarter ones in the city!) I'm going to get crucified for ...  Read the complete review

Northumbria University's motto: Great Learning, Great Experience, Great Future What a load of b0ll0cks! I am currently a student at Northumbria University but thankfully I won't here for much longer. Northumbria University is only good for one thing if you live in the North East, and that is its location. The courses are very ...  Read the complete review

Northumbria University is a great place to study. I've actually been hanging out there since I was fourteen - I used to be a member of a club that met there on weekends in the Union Bar, and because of that I've seen the place evolve. They have some new buildings and facilities now, and the students union has had a lot of make overs ...  Read the complete review

It was on the 13th of September 2002 when I started Northumbria University in Newcastle, aged 20, 2 years older than the average student. I loved it in every way, but I just couldnt handle the financial side of it, hence my hectic social life! Northumbria University has around 25,000 students spread over 4 campuses, 2 of them being in ...  Read the complete review

I must have been one of the few people who didn't enjoy my time at The University of Northumbria at Newcastle. Just the name alone should be a warning - you try writing that out in capitals every time you fill out a form! I think the reason I had such a bad experience, was that I chose Newcastle purely on the relevance of the course ...  Read the complete review

I am a first year student in NBS, widely regarded as the best faculty in UNN. However after 6 months I've decided to enroll at Newcastle Upon Tyne beginning 2001 doing the same course. The problem is the place. I can say this. If you are a mature student returning, this uni is excellent, ideally suited. If you are local and know what ...  Read the complete review

I had the good fortune to be in the last year of students eligible for free tuition - before the government abolished it! As such I won't be too mean about my time at UNN, but I will be honest about the way the university was run, in particular the much vaunted Newcastle Business School. Sure - I was offered over 100 business courses, and ...  Read the complete review

Returning to study as a mature student was a daunting prospect,how will I fit in with all the young students? how will I manage to fit study around the kids? will I look out of place in the student union bar, library etc? Well I soon found out when starting my Criminology/Sociology degree course that all my worries were soon forgotten. ...  Read the complete review

The Uni of Northumbria is an excellent place for anyone to go. It is situated right in the centre of Newcastle and is much more convient for the shops and getting around town in any time off than Newcastle Uni. They were recently rated the top New Uni in a recent poll and they are riding high in the ratings for all Unis in the country. ...  Read the complete review

The uni of Northumbria at Newcastle is based in the centre of Newcastle, right next to Newcastle uni. This makes for a massive student population in what, unbeknownst to most, is a very small city. I have been a member of Northumbria for 3 years now, studying BA (hons) Business Studies. I can honestly say that I have loved every minute of my ...  Read the complete review
