The major three things I liked were Good outreach, experienced faculty and recreational activities. Moreover, the campus environment is also great, full of events and opportunities.

The campus is great, it has a lake, a gym and theatre to relax which mostly campuses don't. It's serene and popular events are less by students union like welcome week, marathon etc.

It was an mixed experience. It was Covid during the period, so I was not able to explore many areas of campus life. But I see my Juniors have got a better experience past covid.

Sports facilities are very Nice. People playing sports have a great opportunity

For academic purposes it was quite engaging and a fulfilling experience. Where I was able to participate in various research groups. The professors were helpful and are still in touch with students. The university provided me that space of academic endeavor that I was looking for and an engaging student life.

The university was founded in 1967 officially and is located on the edge of Stirling city. The university is situated on the site of the historic Airthrey estate which includes the Robert Adam-designed 18th century Airthrey Castle. So yes, you can see that castle as well and take long evening strolls in the university across the lake. UoS ideally is a sports university so you can expect a lot of sports activities all year round. If you just want to play among your peers or might want to make new friends who play the sport that you like, then the university also has a concept of booking slots for playing. You can either come with a group or alone just to play with strangers. I remember making so many friends during my badminton games. But if sports aren't your thing and you're into gym fitness then there's 2-level gym for students along with Zumba, Cardio, Boxing classes being conducted regularly. Apart from that there are over 50+ clubs in the university providing extracurricular activities such as dance, boxing, cheerleading, reader's club, drama & theatre etc. WiFi is always available on the campus from gyms, cafeteria, hostel rooms, libraries, study zones inside of the library and seating/studying zones out of the library too. The university had its own grocery, cafe, pizza and pub place for students to really enjoy themselves. The university also provides a 2-3 level library which is accessible to all students. And during exam period they are fully functional with separate studying room. I actually remember pulling off all-nighters in the 3-floor study area and going back to my dorm room at 4 in the morning. Lastly, there's medical chamber inside the campus. So, for any of your requirements for MH, Physical health is taken seriously and with great care. There are coaches, therapists and counselors to always help and guide students apart from the academics. There's a lot of things that happen at UoS and sometimes it might feel like overwhelming or confusing. But I feel once you're able to catch hold of it, it's a great experience.

It was good, the course material. faculty and the campus. The easy accessibility to books and online material was quite helpful in my journey.

The campus is great, with different amenities like WiFi, a plethora of books (physical and digital), sports facilities and there was also mental health awareness.

On the scale of 1-10, I would rate my experience 8 out of 10.

Campus life is amazing with world class facilities. It includes everything.

I chose Stirling because it is an affordable place to study in a nice location In order to get admission to this uni you must pass a degree with at least 80% mark in English but ielts is not necessary Then you must complete a statement of purpose why you want to study in the UK and send scanned copies of certificate proof to uni admission is between September and February I approached education consultancy uniark and they provide good service they help you get a UK visa fast.

The campus life is perfect and the exposure students get is good. There is a library block with different subjects and journals necessary for the course curriculum. There is also a sports management team in the university to oversee the inspection of ground maintenance. There is a round-the-clock medical service clinic on campus and you can get the service of a psychologist if needed. There is a freshers fest for new students and there is a student club to help international students with their admission queries. There is a university coop run by students.

Overall, in terms of academics and infrastructure, my time at the university was Fabulous and one that I will cherish forever. Stirling is a town which comes lively only because of the number of students who reside there and go to the University. I definitely grew a lot professionally and personally during my time at the University. If the placement system was a tad bit better I think it would have been cherry on the cake especially for International students.

Excellent in all aspects, I was playing for a recreational football team during the time as well.
