Ask a current Anglia Ruskin student

Hello!

There is no ARU thread like this so I thought I'd create one for any new and prospective students.

Anything you would like to know, simply fire away and post your question! :smile:

Hello

I am in my third year, studying Business Management.

My best moment at university so far, was reading my second year results. I was so overwhelmed, I put in lots of hard work in my studies, and it paid off as I am now on track to achieve a first class degree :colondollar:

Hard work does pay off!

It really depends to be honest with you. What campus would you like to study at?

I'm studying at the Cambridge Campus and have applied to stay at CB1, do you have any opinions of it? Is it loud, quiet, clean etc? :smile:

I'm starting a psychology course in September and I'm really nervous about oral presentations. Did you have to do many? Also what happens if someone refuses to do an oral presentation ? :smile:

Most psychology courses don't actually involve oral presentations. Coursework will be the main part of getting your grade, along with some exams.

It is very clean, very tight security. Don't be suprised if you get locked out, it happened to everyone! Your room is an ensuite (no bath) with a kitchen you have to share with 7 other people, you need to claim your cupboards and sign up for broadband it's free for the first two devices, then you have to £15 for the next four. I was beside the kitchen and it really wasn't that loud, you will only hear your flat mates.

Hi,

I'm considering doing paramedic science at ARU. Do you know what the course is like and whether students enjoy it? Is it a recommended course? How likely am I going to get work after graduation?

Thanks

You can find out more about what it's actually like to be on the course by reading some of our students' blogs here. You can find out about their experiences on their placements as well as their take on life at Anglia Ruskin.

Hi sophie.b.hunt

I hope you're well!

Glad to hear you're planning on joining us in Cambridge! We sent out an email last week about living and studying in Cambridge - did you receive this? If not, I can send it directly to you.
