University of Winchester Speciality : Psychology
programme: BA (hons) Psychology

During my time at Winchester University, I really appreciated the Universities excellent, easy to access student wellbeing support services. I also really enjoyed the opportunity to engage in paid, extra curricular activities that strengthened my CV such as being a Student ambassador, Non-medical helper and Student Fellow (Part of the universities Student Fellow Scheme); there is a strong culture for giving students the opportunity to venture outside of their academic field of study and into funded opportunities that enable students to strengthen a plethora of transferable skills. As one of the few black students attending the University, I certainly would have liked to see a little more diversity, however, as I was leaving the university I had the opportunity to participate in a campaign to improve ethnic and racial diversity at the university, so I am sure Winchester now has a thriving community of students from various ethnic, cultural and racial backgrounds.
