About Bishop Grosseteste University

PROS

  • As BGU is a small university with less than 3,000 students, so there is a sense of familiarity among staff and students.
  • Students appreciate that there’s a variety of accommodation buildings, including Wickham Hall, Constance Stewart Hall, and Cloud Houses. There are even more options off -campus that the university provides. Different locations and price points appeal to a wide range of students.
  • Their library provides expert help and advice, from their staff who assist students in navigating the University’s research repository.

CONS

  • Not much guidance is given to those looking for placement opportunities, students complain. To remedy this situation students claim that the career advice office would need to improve their activity.
  • Students generally aren’t satisfied with the timetable organization, as classes are not distributed evenly throughout the week. This means some days are full of classes, while others have none.
