Which Uni is better?

Swansea University or University of Greenwich??
I’m an international student and I’m confused between these two options, I have been selected from both for UnderGrad (business and marketing management)!
They’re very different places.

How did you end up with these 2 options? What sort of university and living environment are you looking for?

Im flexible to travel anywhere in UK as far as its worth it. I have selected business management & marketing and i want to know which one amongst them is better, for example the surrounding should be friendly and welcoming, must have everything nearby (grocery/medical stores).

Hi there,

It's great to hear that you have decided to study in the UK.

My name is Megan, and I've just recently graduated from Swansea University. While I of course can't speak for what Greenwich is like, I can tell you about Swansea based off my experience which has been great.

Here at Swansea, the environment and community is really wonderful. The people are very friendly and the student community is vibrant! There's always lots going on for you to meet likeminded people and this can really help you settle in and feel welcome!

As for the surrounding area, Swansea is a small city, but that's a benefit. Everything is close. Depending on where you choose to stay, the town can either be a few minutes walk or a short bus journey. Both of our campuses have lovely surroundings near the beach. To study business and marketing management, you would be studying on our Bay Campus which is actually located right on the beach edge which is very unique and always a nice perk!

It's also worth noting that we have a dentist and GP surgery located on our Singleton Park campus too, which is a great convivence for students. You are able to register to both of these when you arrive if you wish to do so.

If you have any further questions I'd be happy to answer them.

Best wishes,
Megan (Swansea University Official Rep, Politics and International Relations Graduate).
