I study pharmacy at Portsmouth. I study pharmacy at Portsmouth. The course content throughout the 4 years is great but it requires more organisation and equal balancing of the content by the staff. The university has great teachers, very friendly and helpful, who are willing to help during lectures but also after the class. The faculty has good facilities and materials needed for studies. It's a city university but more feels like a campus based because most university buildings are few minutes away from one and another, it is easier to walk in between lectures. The library is open 24 hours so you can study at any time you like. So far its been a great experience :)

Supportive and enriching experience at Portsmouth I am a Sociology and Criminology student going into my third year at the University of Portsmouth. There is a sense of belonging at Portsmouth and I have been provided with so many opportunities to grow as an individual and realise my potential. I love that the lecturers on my course are welcoming and passionate about their fields of study. They have always reassured me if I am ever unsure about anything regarding the module topics and provide extensive feedback to help me progress. Beyond academic skills, I have also developed employability skills as the university has supported me in finding several career-focused volunteer work. Particularly, the University of Portsmouth has been exceptional in responding to the unprecedented situation that the global pandemic has caused. There has been so much support and advice on looking after your mental health. Staff have been so caring and have provided me with support to engage in wellbeing workshops in a relaxed, comfortable environment to develop coping techniques. Overall my experience at the university has been amazing and you are never on your own if you have any concerns. I am so glad I chose Portsmouth and that I am part of the close-knit community.

International Relations Student About to go into my 3rd and final year at UoP. As an international student I was nervous about attending uni in a whole new country but I can say that I have had a good experience at UoP. There is a lot of support for international students, and the vast majority of staff and students are extremely welcoming. My course has been interesting, yet challenging. Doing second year online didn't really help but I still felt like I had a good level of support and communication from the university, which was great.

My experience as an Estranged student Initially, I was terrified of attending university as an Estranged student. I was worried about being alone and unsupported. However, the student finance team offered and provided me with a variety of support including financial guidance, personal support and a bursary. The student wellbeing team were incredibly helpful with the courses that they run and the access to their trained therapists. Recently, there has been a society set up for students in my position which has helped me to feel more included and welcome within the university. All of the university staff that I have had the pleasure of engaging with have been supportive and accommodating throughout.

Awful 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.
