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.

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 :)

One year down, Three more to go! One year down, Three more to go! I've always dreamed of going to University and kind of put it off for several years. Now as a mature student jumping straight in I can safely say its been an amazing experience. We've just had the Freshers Fair and joined about 4 Societies which has been incredible for learning new names and faces.

A lot of help ! I started at the University of Portsmouth in September 2020, studying Early Childhood Studies. It was a weird experience, having lectures and seminars online, not being able to meet coursemates, and being stuck in halls all day, but the wellbeing team were very helpful in supporting students through the tough situation. The lecturers are very understanding, and easy to talk to, and they can signpost you to the correct people to make sure you get the correct help. There is a lot of help available at the uni, in terms of student finance help and the Disabled Student's Allowance (DSA), careers advice, educational workshops and a lot more! They are definitely worth going to!

Excellent 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!
