University of York Speciality : English Language & Literature
programme: English Literature

In terms of the actual teaching, the English department is fantastic. Full of passionate, caring lecturers who truly value student interest and input. The library also makes the majority of resources accessible with no extra cost. Though the feedback received for essays can sometimes be confusing or minimal, the opportunity to book office hours means any confusions can often be mediated and a more detailed level of feedback can be provided. However, living on campus means that situations involving student welfare can sometimes be minimised or reduced by college wellbeing officers, and the protocol for threat to female safety on campus definitely needs improving.

York is a lovely place – historic and beautiful.

The University education you receive is fantastic – great quality lecturers and facilities.

Made friends for life and ended up staying on in York for years afterwards
