The university is located in Yorkshire, which means everyone has a very strong accent. I would not recommend this university to anyone who has not fluent knowledge of English. Beginners may struggle a lot.

It was very far from the university and the town centre. The shuttle buses to the town centre were not always on time. Moreover, there were was no service at nights so you had to use a taxi.
