Great atmosphere

(5)·By Suraj J·Business· Jun 2025
I felt really honored to be part of Bangor University. I am enjoying my student life here. They provide great accommodation facilities with a friendly atmosphere. The location around the university is breathtaking. I mean, the town where Bangor University is located is rich in nature. The only problem I have faced here is the lack of jobs for students to survive.

Beautiful location

I love being in Bangor! So close to so many places for a lovely walk to take your mind off study!
All of the facilities are lovely and characterful with so many different places to do independent study.
Sometimes it's difficult to navigate as the campus is very spread out and up a lot of steep hills but the lovely views make it a little easier.
There are lots of societies to get involved in and to make new friends.

Jam packed with activities put on by the uni, mixed in with the freshers fair encouraging everyone to join all of the FREE clubs and societies they have on offer. A broad range of accommodations for first year to suit everyone. There is an over supply of student houses in Bangor so there is no need to rush into any decisions. Library, classrooms and sport areas were all fantastic with plenty of space. The student union doesn't really have a space/bar like other unis. There is uni owned pub on the halls site and a separate students union in the centre of town which has a great relationship with it's students. The course size is relatively small meaning you have a more focused approach and lectures are more interactive meaning you have a more personal relationship with your lectures - whom are all super supportive and understanding as well as being experts in their field. Loads of pubs all within walking distance of everywhere but only two nightclubs. Despite this it is pretty much all you need for the size of the place. Failing that huge house parties do go on. Everything is within walking distance and the views surrounding are incredible.

It was very good. We learned everything we needed to know about the school itself as well as doing some fun getting to know everyone activities. We had a freshers fair & also some fun nights out with some great peer guides I didn't stay in student accommodation. There is a lot of new student halls around & from what I gather from other students, private letting wasn't too bad They have it all. Multiple libraries spread out on the multiple campuses with everything needed. They did 24 hour use during exam periods. They have a new sports facility, a brand new students union hub with great staff The staff. They become a second family & that's amazing. They're not just teachers... they're there for anything you need & they are beyond amazing For me, it was what I was used to, I grew up in the area. As a mature student I didn't go out much or anything because I'm so used to it here

Really enjoyable, got to know the area and met loads of great people Really good facilities, plenty of room and storage. No complaints. Loved the library! Great for revision and uni work. Enjoyed having a mix of small classrooms and large lecture halls. Amazing teachers! Mix of large group and small group learning/teaching Great! Everything from accommodation and lectures to shops and clubs was all in walking distance from each other. Would be better if the town had a few extra things such as a cinema and Primark.

Well looked after during freshers, interactive lectures Excellent, well kept, clean and in a good area There is plenty of libraries in Bangor and all kept well, the lectures were great, chairs be uncomfy but enough room for notes. Sports areas were excellent, gym is new and has good equipment My course was good, loved all lectures apart from research methods Great for walks and sports activities
