- My accommodation is disgusting
Since getting here I've probably had about over 20 maintenance calls made as when i got here my accommodation was horrendously dirty, infested with bugs, incredibly damaged and contaminated with human waste. Although most of this has been sorted i still feel so scammed as my accom is the most expensive one... I'm also having issues now with flat mates leaving allergens all over the kitchen despite knowing it could make me seriously unwell. I have a disability which effects how much energy i have yet I'm having to spend most of it cleaning up after others.
- Nobody responds to emails ever
The reason I was put into this accommodation in the first place is because i was unable to apply for accommodation for the first week the portal opened (I went to apply the hour it opened). I contacted them many times but nothing was done to fix the issue. By the time it actually got resolved there was no spaces left in my first choice and i got the accommodation i have now... I have given up on contacting anybody at this university as it is the same case in lots of departments.
- No extensions on most work
I spent over a month unwell (some of this time in hospital) and despite this no extensions were offered for any quizzes, because of this I've had to do as much studying and work as anybody who is well. I was worried about this as these quizzes effect your final grade and nobody seemed to care at all and was essentially told to either get on with it or lose parts of my grade. So I was working while bed-ridden with a fever instead of recovering.
- I don't know a single happy person on my course
Out of everybody i know taking my course not a single person i personally know is happy with the quality of teaching. I know for a fact I'm not the only person disappointed about this uni.
Since coming here my mental health has become extremely poor and I'm heavily considering dropping out from here. I used to be very calm but every day i spend here my heart is just racing at all times and I constantly feel on edge. My college was so kind and accommodating with my physical and learning disabilities and it just feels like I've lost everything. I even retook GCSEs because i was so set on coming to this university.
I just really needed to vent I honestly thought this place would be an amazing new start for me but I feel like I've just ruined my life.
