Advantages: Great location and good facilities

Disadvantages: Doesnt have a huge range of subjects for everyone

I attended Swansea Uni for three years to complete my BA (hons) Degree between 2002-05, so here is a breadown of my opinion on it:

Location

The location is great, and Swansea as a City is pretty good. The Uni is quite close to the centre of Swansea (certainly walkable) and is even closer to the coast and some of the beaches. It is also literally across the road from the National Pool Wales.

City

The City is undergoing massive regeneration so is having a lot of money pumped into it! As a result it has some great new buildings and facilities, and is progressing quickly as Wales' second city.

Student Accomodation

There is accomodation onsite for freshers and first year students, most 2nd and 3rd (or more) yr students live off site or on a local student village. The village is quite far away but there are regular bus routes.

Uni Facilities

Most subjects are taught on campus and the campus sprawls quite a large area. It has a great couple of librarys and has good food facilities, bars and nightclub etc.

Overall

Had a great time at Swansea, its a great city and worth a look if they have the subject that you are looking for.

Summary: Well worth a look if you are looking at Unis.
