GBAwful Learning Experience As a mature student studying a degree in Virtual and Augmented Reality, who has just completed his 3rd year at Portsmouth University. I have to say I have had an awful experience. From studying online in the first year and being charged full tuition fees, to having my student support cancelled in the 3rd year. I can with my hand on my heart say I have had an awful education there. Think twice before you enroll.

GBThird year student! I am not going into my third year at the university of Portsmouth and so far it has been great! I study criminology with psychology and the modules are really interesting and insightful! The university is really beneficial in terms of its careers services they provide. I am very excited to start my third year here and gain many more opportunities with the university.

GBExcellent Support and so many opportunities There is excellent support at the University of Portsmouth, I've had an amazing experience here for my undergraduate so much so I'm back for my Masters! There's so many opportunities whilst studying like placements and work experience, but also outside of learning with hundreds of societies to get involved with and meet new people. Portsmouth has been such a rewarding place to study, I highly recommend!

GBBeing an International student at The University of Portsmouth.. Being an International student, It was easy to adjust and get help. The university buildings are spread out around the city and the locations are not far from each other. Easily accessible by walking or taking the University buses which are free. There are university cafes around the buildings to grab a bite. Professors are very welcoming, interactive and give extra support if needed. The university gives you an option to join societies according to your hobbies/interests. One of the best ways to find friends in the city. The university is one of the best in terms of teaching and accommodating students and has a plethora of facilities in order to develop and gain new skills and knowledge.

GBCriminology and Forensic Studies Student My experience at the University of Portsmouth has been more than I imagine in many different aspects. My course is both practical and coursework base, allowing me to broaden many skills I never had before coming here. You can also participate in one-to-one tutor meetings to discuss your progress and if you need extra help with your studies. The university also has strong connections with different companies and partnerships if you want a work placement or study abroad year. In my first year, I lived in Chaucer House in an en-suite room. In my second year, I moved into a house and finally a flat both 10 mins away from the uni. The University campus is within a 15 to 20min walking distance range, so transport in Portsmouth is not a problem because you can walk everywhere. The student union has over 150 societies, all ranging from sports, cultural and course-focused ones. There’s plenty to choose from!
