University of Sunderland in general Reviews
Newest Review: ... bus, it is a fantastic service. SU is very welcoming for Freshers and it sends University students round to your halls and these students take you out and ensure that you get to know other people. The nightlife is fairly good in Sunderland and some pubs do sell alcohol cheaply. The university has two campuses which aren't too far away from each other. The St Peter's Campus is much better and more modern than the campus in the City Centre. However, the library is better at the City Campus. The library is a huge building and is very modern inside. Overall, I would recommend Sunderland University because it does provide a good student exper... more

I have attended Sunderland University for two years now and overall I do enjoy it. There are both good and bad points to this university (referred to as SU from here on). A good thing about SU is that it provides a free bus to take you from your university halls into the university itself. Now the bad thing about this bus is that it's small and is normally full. However, when you can get on the bus, it is a fantastic service. SU is very welcoming for Freshers and it sends University students round to your halls and these students take you out and ensure that you get to know other people. The nightlife is fairly good in Sunderland and some pubs do ... Read the complete review

I am currently a student at Sunderland uni, doing psychology at the business school and I would definitely recommend it! The business school itself is LUSH, its got a 24/7 computer centre that has plenty of PC's so you'll never need to wait for one like you do in some of the other campuses although you need to set up a computer account with the informatics centre first (something that isn't done for you for some reason!?!) There is a campus bus service that is free to all students and it tours round the major halls and campuses twice an hour until tea time. There are *two* canteens in the St Peter's campus where I am based and ... Read the complete review

One of the biggest decisions you’ll have to make when considering what to do once you leave college is whether or not you’ll go to university. The next questions are which courses and which university? I looked at a number of universities in my final year at sixth form and they were all quite close to where I’m from (Middlesbrough). As well as looking at Teeside uni in Middlesbrough I also visited Leeds and Bradford and finally Sunderland. All of them where asking for similar grades to gain entry to the course I was interested in; but in the end I plumped for Sunderland. I chose this university for a couple of reasons really, ...

....I'd choose a different university. Uni of Sunderland is one of those places that could be fantastic if they made the effort. It's in a great location, has some fantastic purpose built facilities and accomodation, but rather than being brilliant in a couple of areas it's chosen to be average in all of them. Lectures, and even whole modules are frequently cancelled without warning, scheduling and organisation are extremely poor and as for the staff....what can I say? The staff are there but might as well not be. After three years there I still did not manage to get a degree pass because 2 of the compulsory modules of my course were cancelled. Why? ...
