Academic
Course recommendations
The courses are at such a low quality level that I don't understand how they got accredited. They are a testimonial against British education. The professors are no help at all and course registration takes weeks to complete since it is done on paper and they take their time processing the forms.

Personal comments
The academics at this university are more in line with a really bad polytechnic that is nothing more than a degree factory where you buy your degree. You will NOT learn anything useful here.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
The residence facilities on campus are really the worst I have ever seen. They are poorly maintained, treat students like garbage and have tons of ridiculous rules that they use to evict students if they overbooked the residence halls.

Personal comments
Avoid at all costs. This is a horrible place where students are worse then a number.

Personal comments
The only night spots are on campus and are really small and cramped. They built a new building with five bars in it but they are the smallest bars you could ever imagine. They are overly cramped and often only have 1 bartender so you wait in line for half the night to get your drink.
